Growing up in Manhattan has given me a thick skin.

There was always Helmut Newton coffee table books around when I was growing up.

The houses in Mustique are styled with incredible decor. I vacationed there as a kid and have the fondest memories.

I'm a firm believer that you don't have to pick one career path.

Only an artist can interpret the meaning of life.

Every time I get a bit worried about having made some second rate choices in life I go back and read about the Suffragettes or William Wilberforce, people who were 'wrong' in their own time, and think, 'Ah well.'

The truth is that several years ago, I suffered from depression. And I remember during this time, I basically fell into this hole where my life became cold, and it became gray, and I lost sight of everything that was important to me.

The truth is, when you want a great show, it's not 'entertaining' the audience - it's you sharing with them... an experience of communion.
