I'd asked around 10 or 15 people for suggestions. Finally one lady friend asked the right question 'Well what do you love most?' That's how I started painting money.
I don't blame the players today for the money. I blame the owners. They started it. They wanna give it to 'em? More power to 'em.
It's hard to tell with these Internet startups if they're really interested in building companies or if they're just interested in the money. I can tell you though: If they don't really want to build a company they won't luck into it. That's because it's so hard that if you don't have a passion you'll give up.
I always was drawn to the performing arts. I started dancing when I was two. I sang loved to act and loved going to visit my mom on-set. But she wanted me to have a normal childhood so I wasn't really allowed to pursue acting till I got older.
I just started watching wrestling in 2008 and I've loved it ever since. I told my mom I wanted to become a wrestler.
My mom is two people to me. She's my mom number one and then she's this lady most comedians know as being a legendary owner of a nightclub that's responsible for starting a lot of heavy careers.
My mom and dad are both in stand-up comedy so that's where I started that's where I got everything. My roots are holding the mic.
My mom was a photographer and whenever they needed a baby for a modelling job she'd stick me in front of the camera. That's how it started.
I probably wouldn't be singing if not for Michael Jackson. When I started singing I didn't like my tone until my mom put me on to Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder so listening to the way they used their instrument helped me get more comfortable with my own.
My mom's a concert pianist so she started teaching me when I was around seven. When I was eight I started writing my own songs and kinda started putting piano and singing together. But I'm trained classically which is a big influence on me I think.
