It's special to me, a privilege being a role model. I take pride in being a good one.

Jason Witten

I didn't have a role model. My role model was Michael Jordan. Bad role model for an Indian dude... I didn't have anyone who looked like me. And by the time I was old enough to have what could have been a role model, they were my peers. Aziz Ansari is my peer. Kal Penn is my peer.

Utkarsh Ambudkar

We sometimes think that being a celebrity is the same as being a role model. But a role model is actually someone you can touch, talk to and dream with.

Mandy Moore

What we'd consider a positive role model, I think it's impossible to actually be a role model. You'll have your flaws or defects of character, regardless. You just speak like a positive role model, and that's just something that you're being conscious of, and you make the decision, "I want to say positive things."

Curtis Jackson

I'm not a role model, nor have I ever tried to be a role model. The only thing about me as a role model is I've managed to stay here and be working and survive. For 40 years.

Cher

I like being a role model - people have told me that I am a role model for empowered women, but I don't see myself that way.

India Arie

I stay away from the title of 'role model.' I want to be a more realistic role model - not a perfect Barbie role model.

Melanie Martinez

You become a role model because of what you do as a person. There's a certain point where being a role model might come from standing up for yourself and getting rid of emotion that doesn't belong to you, emotion that is being brought on because of racist actions of others.

Claudia Rankine

Everybody should have their own thing, and if he don't want to be a role model, that should be up to him. In the right situations, I can try to help and be a role model, but I'm still gonna speak my mind, and if that affects the role-model deal, then too bad.

Toby Keith

I don't apply [being a role model] to the choices I make. I feel like a role model is not necessarily someone you want to imitate, just someone you admire.

Kristen Stewart

I'm aware of the decisions I make and the responsibility I have as a role model. I wouldn't disregard that. It's a privilege.

Naomi Scott

I don't know if I ever really think about being a role model. But I guess if you're in the public eye and people are looking at what you do, you do want to be a good role model, and you want to kind of be seen in a good light.

Georgina Campbell

Once you become a professional athlete or once you do anything well, then you're automatically a role model ... I have no problem being a role model. I love it. I have kids looking up to me and hopefully I inspire these kids to do good things.

LeBron James

I've done things that can be made fun of. It's not such a bad thing. If I'm going to end up a role model, then I'd rather not end up being the kind of role model that pretends to be perfect, and pretends that she always has the right thing to say. I'm a product of role models that didn't make me feel like I was as good as them.

Fiona Apple

I never thought I'd be a role model this early. It caught me off-guard, but it says a lot about how I was brought up, what my values have been, and how my parents raised me. It's very flattering that being myself is enough to be a role model.

Danica Patrick

First there's my role just as an executive being responsible for advertising, regardless of gender. I think that's a position that I take seriously. That's the first role. But I think for my role as a woman at Google, you try to set a good example and be a role model for the other women in the organization.
