I guess I could say I'm an actor, which I am, but that sounds like I'm putting down being a movie star, which, let's face it, is what I've become to many people. For myself, I'm a guy who was very insecure from about age 14 until the day I hit my 30th birthday.

My real-life athletic career was not very much. I played Little League baseball.

I found that you don't have to do drugs to have a great time. Music is a great drug on its own.

For many years, I was obsessed about what I was eating, how many calories it had, and how much exercise I'd have to do.

Horseracing and ranch horses are two different animals. You're getting race horses out and running and running them. It can be really problematic. A thoroughbred's very delicate.

God is the only way you're going to make it in life, the glue that holds everything together.
