Sometimes people say things they don't mean, and you just have to let it go.
Joe Manganiello
I think when portraying someone that does exist in real life, there's an amount of respect and you want to do them justice. I don't really care what anybody says out there about what I did in the film I care what these guys thought about what I did. If I'm making them happy, then I know I'm on the right track.
Joe Manganiello

Joe Manganiello
I was single long enough, and when I was, it wasn't about putting notches in the bedpost.
Joe Manganiello
When I'd be out-and-about at a club and the music would come on, I was never the guy that was gonna dance. But after Magic Mike - I have like two or three go-to moves. That's what Magic Mike gave me.
Joe Manganiello
I'm glad that I lost, I'm glad that I failed, I'm glad that I felt that way and decided to do something about it... I never wanted to feel that way again and it drove me.
Joe Manganiello
I think you can be athletic and intellectual at the same time.

I am kind of giant … on (the True Blood) set.

American comedies especially are all about these men being browbeaten by their wives and it's impossible for me to watch.
