Hollywood is so fake and people need to realize that people are just people, and you, too, don't need to be born into something or have money or have whatever product someone is hawking on you.

If all of the people in Hollywood had plastic surgery and went on vacation, there wouldn't be a person left in town.

I sure lost my musical direction in Hollywood. My songs were the same conveyor belt mass production, just like most of my movies were.

Loneliness was tough, the toughest role you ever played. Hollywood created a superstar, and pain was the price you paid.

I remember being in Hollywood at the age of 16 and marveling at the stars. The idea of being part of it never entered my mind. It was too far-fetched.

In leaving Hollywood and coming to New York, I feel I can be more myself. After all, if I can't be myself, what's the good of being anything at all?
