I'm not overly alarmist about it but I do think there are some worrying signs like the growing accumulation of wealth by a very small proportion of the population plus elections in the US are much more dominated by money than anywhere else calling itself a democracy.

I actually think that the economy has got some positives. It's got the market. It's got consumer confidence and it's got banks throwing - I mean central bankers throwing money at it around the world.

False opinions are like false money struck first of all by guilty men and thereafter circulated by honest people who perpetuate the crime without knowing what they are doing.

There are two kinds of power you have to fight. The first is the money and that's just our system. The other is the people close around you knowing when to accept their criticism knowing when to say no.

That's the real secret to job creation - not borrowing and spending more money in Washington.

Don't cling to fame. You're just borrowing it. It's like money. You're going to die and somebody else is going to get it.

If borrowing and spending all this money led to more jobs than we would be at full employment already.

Well Mom and Dad are both actors and I've spent a lot of time watching my mom on stage and a lot of time on set with my dad so it was very much a part of my growing up.

Growing up I always shopped at Victoria's Secret with my mom and saw Angels like Gisele and Karolina Kurkova in the windows.

My dad is a lawyer and my mom is an artist. So growing up was exactly what it sounds like - strict household but a lot of creativity. They are so psyched that I get to make music for a living. My parents rule.
