Personal Quotes
I think আপনি have to be very secure as an actor to escape yourself - to revisit someone's past, whether you're portraying another person অথবা creating someone, and then to come back to who আপনি are and not bring those emotions with you.
Parties don't thrill me. I like sitting at প্রথমপাতা with a tub of Chunky Monkey ice cream watching Big Brother অথবা Friends.
I want to have lots of bodyguards around me and be surrounded দ্বারা beautiful women while watching my brother play at Wimbledon.
(2011) Being an actor in L.A. is like being in prison: আপনি go, আপনি serve your time, আপনি try to replicate Johnny Depp's career-and then আপনি সরানো to Paris
(2011) L.A. is growing on me a little bit, but it's still a shit-hole. I think it's this insidious pool where nearly everyone lives in fear. Geographically it's fantastic: in a half hour, আপনি can be on the সৈকত in one direction, go snowboarding in another, অথবা go out into the desert. But socially it's disgusting. I wish they'd just run all the cunts out.
(2011) আপনি hear a lot of people say they want to make art in this industry, but so few people actually fucking do it. I was disillusioned দ্বারা [Hollywood] at the time, but now I've come to accept that's just the way things are: it's called প্রদর্শনী business, not প্রদর্শনী art.
(2011) I don't go out, I don't drink, and I don't do drugs.
(2011) I think my Wikipedia (page) is full of bullshit because I actually don't have anything cool অথবা interesting to be ব্যক্ত about me. I've heard I'm called a bad boy, অথবা difficult-maybe that's because I don't take any bullshit.
