I Happen To Be A Movie Star, But I'm Not Saying, "hey, I'm A Role Model. Imitate Me."

I Meet So Many People. I Want To Be Genuine And Open With Everyone, Because When I Was Young And Just Starting Out, I Remember I Was Around People Who Were Successful, And I Thought That Some Were Kind Of Cool Or Off-putting To Their Fans. It Always Really Bothered Me. So I Think I May Sometimes Go Too Far Out Of My Way.

For The Moment, Our Lives Proceed As Usual, But Within A Month, We Think, Everything Will Change. It's A Frustrating, If Exciting, Disconnect.
