A Quote by Clive Owen
When I started in the theater, the joy for me was playing different parts, and I get set alight by different people and different worlds. The biggest joy for me is jumping around and going from that to this to that, never feeling that I'm any one thing - because I'm not, and we as people aren't.

The live thing is separate from the record for me. I have to figure out a way to make the songs work live.

As much as still feeling connected to it, it's more like rediscovering.

For the camera, I like the feeling of changing into different characters. Even though I'm not acting, I still have to be someone different to show the product.

But when they give me an outfit, like a very elegant outfit, it transforms me into this beautiful woman - I can feel it inside me. I like that, playing different characters. I'm really interested in acting.
Everybody is great and the chemistry is different with everyone. That is the joy of acting - you really don't know how it is going to go until you turn up.
