I'm more of a freestyle dancer. I like to do my own thing.

Day to day, I always wear eyeliner on my top lid and mascara. I like to do my own makeup, it depends on the event.

I use SPF every day, then apply foundation, mascara, eyeliner and blusher. I always take my make-up off at night and moisturize.

The more you work, the more people can see that you're something different from what's come before.

I have a great plain blue shirt from APC, and a denim one from Dolce that I wear constantly. It's hard to find the perfect denim shirt, but this is it.

I'm small. I'm petite. But I'm a bit of a fighter inside.

I would describe my look as 'ladylike rock chick.

Always, my mother said, "Be yourself." That is sometimes the hardest thing to do. I try to always remember that and come back to that and have strength in who you are. There is only one you.

Fashion choices are never arbitrary. Even if you say you don't care, that's a decision. There's something you're trying to say.

I think, as an actor, you're always traveling. There's a sense of dislocation sometimes from home.

I think that when something happens when you're growing up, like a death or divorce, it does open the world slightly because things aren't as straightforward.

Your emotions make you human. Even the unpleasant ones have a purpose. Don't lock them away. If you ignore them, they just get louder and angrier.

I had lots of good intentions but I wasted them on people who didn't deserve them...

Between Prince and my dad's fusion-jazz records, I didn't have a choice in being funky.

Don't try to be fearless or pretend you aren't impacted by fear. Just try to prevent fear from making your decisions for you.

I like melancholy. I like to pretend that I'm alone in the world and I'm just sort of abandoned.

When I was Governor, Louis Kelso went out of his way to brief me. I was very impressed, but I was never able to get any of the economists in state government to give him the help his plan deserves.

I'm just a dude and I feel like being completely isolated would be kind of a drag. I really do get a lot of energy from feedback from fans. People create music videos and artwork for my music.

Most entrepreneurs fail because they are working IN their business rather than ON their business.

All that glitters is sold as gold.

I love the process of making films and an incidental satisfaction is the fact that most of them made money.
