There were many factors as to why I decided to come out as being undocumented. One of them is because I look the way that I look; I don't look like the 'stereotypical undocumented' person.
You can get a subjective and highly factual dossier on most anyone in the public realm almost instantly. It's why publishers don't worry about author photos any more; people just Google a person and get on with things.
I never wanted to be that fad type of artist. When I looked up to artists, watching TV, I wanted to see somebody. I wanted to touch that person. I wanted to sound like them. I wanted to move like them. That' s what I want my fans to do. So that's why, everything that I do, the music I make, how I dress, it's all based off my lifestyle.
I think the notion of traditional anchor is fading away - the all-knowing, all-seeing person who speaks from on high. I don't think the audience really buys that anymore. As a viewer, I know I don't buy it.
Friendship is also about liking a person for their failings, their weakness. It's also about mutual help, not about exploitation.
I'm not a fake person.
I like to hide behind the characters I play. Despite the public perception, I am a very private person who has a hard time with the fame thing.
It's a very complicated issue, this fame thing - I was not really cut out for it. There are some really fantastic things about it, but it's difficult for a private person like myself.
I don't like to get involved in things that I am not familiar with. I'm kind of a hands-on type of person.
A person who steals bread during a famine is not treated as a thief.
If anyone besides famous people knew what it was like to be a famous person, they would never want to be famous.
My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person.
Whenever you're the child of a famous person, you get judged in odd ways because of that.
As a famous person you think how you're gonna end it, get away and have a normal life.
A famous person to themselves, they don't get up in the morning and think, I'm famous. I'm not famous to me. Famous is a perception.
It doesn't matter what famous person I've come across in the street, I don't think I've ever shouted.
I feel like everyone has the right to privacy, even if you're the most famous person in the world.
I'm the poorest famous person in the country.
I'm not thirsty. I'm not a pop star. I don't want to reign over all forever... I don't want to be famous! It makes me feel sick, the thought of being a famous person. It's just not me.
A window covered with raindrops interests me more than a photograph of a famous person.
