Hot Ones' is a show that takes a celebrity, which by definition is a person whose lifestyle is unattainable, and then 'Hot Ones' takes that celebrity and knocks them down a peg - a level that everyone can relate to.
As a celebrity, you get a certain number of free passes. You're actually in a better position if you're a celebrity because people care.
If you lived next door to me and didn't know what I did, you wouldn't know I was a celebrity. I don't have that lifestyle, nor do I want that lifestyle. I want to know that I can have a separate life with my wife and my kids and just be normal and go camping and fishing and outdoor stuff.
I'm not really into the celebrity lifestyle.
The only lifestyle I'm promoting is the lifestyle of love and friendship. The lifestyle of music, and joy, and fashion. So whoever wants to come and get part of that lifestyle, we accept anybody.
I love a good party - but I'm not all that attracted to a celebrity lifestyle.
These athletes can be considered the gods in certain ways and the fans can be considered parishioners.
There's this notion that in order to draw attention and to be considered for roles I want to be considered for, you need a certain amount of notoriety.
Usually, the 24-hour, high-maintenance celebrity lifestyle can disconnect people from reality.
I've not gone out of my way to live a celebrity lifestyle, which I could easily have done.
People see the celebrity lifestyle and assume everything is perfect, but we're just like everyone else.
To me, there are two types of celebrity: there's good celebrity - people that are attracted to the food and working and trying to create something great - and then there's bad celebrity - those who are working on being a celebrity.
I never considered myself a celebrity. I hate that word. It's tawdry.
But I've always felt a need to have a life which is completely separate - at least as far as possible - from the kind of illusory lifestyle that comes with being a celebrity.
I meet people who are famous, and it's made me realise that fame has huge lifestyle disadvantages. I'm nervous about that. I don't want to become a celebrity.
I've never considered myself a celebrity or even part of the entertainment business. I'm a cooking teacher.
