What led me to be an actor is that I have a strange something in me that can drastically change the way I appear to the world.

And then I learned to make a career of it.

One of the things I love about doing things that are creative is that I feel like it's my right as an artist not to be affected by the reactions of those people that are going to hear my songs.
