We've become so glorified in the movie-star system that it's become this artificial royalty. The truth is that we're circus clowns.
I enjoyed clowns when I was a kid going to the circus. Mainly I mean the good clowns, when you go to a circus.
I like the clowns from the circus that have more paint on their face. They were all funny and made me laugh. As a kid, I remember the clowns that were all in white reminded me more of death than circus clowns. It can be a scary thing.
I'm a singer and working on my second album. I write and produce. There is so much more that satisfies me. So there's not just this one ambition to become an American movie star. Because I will never become an American movie star.
The Church has been foreordained of God to become that people who will become so glorified that we can bring Christ back to the earth. This glorified church must make the earth God's footstool before Jesus can come again.
My dream was to go to Hollywood and become a movie star, and it happened. This country is geared toward that. When an actor can become president, anything can happen.
I never considered myself a movie star, and I didn't want to become a movie star, because as soon as you do, you throw away that possibility of playing character. You really do. All of a sudden you're just an entity, you know?
Quite frankly, I didn't become an actor to become a movie star. I have never dreamed about being the most famous person on the planet. I just want to do really good work.
I'm the first has-been star singer ever to sing with the circus. I mean, Presley sang with the circus, but that was before he became a star.
I'm not a movie star, and I don't want to become a movie star.
In the Stephen Sondheim song, when something bad happens in the circus, they send in the clowns. In America's political circus, they send in the lawyers.
As incredible as television has become, it often feels like a sideshow in what has become a daily three-ring media circus.
I, of course, was born as if I was a movie star in my head. Even though I had nothing, in my head I was always royalty. My mother always said, 'I don't know where you came from'. I didn't have their value system. And I always lived beyond my means.
For me to become an All-Star for two straight years and now to become an All-Star starter, I most definitely proved the doubters wrong. It's an unbelievable moment in my career.
I think when you become a parent you go from being a star in the movie of your own life to the supporting player in the movie of someone else's.
You become a star not because of your title; you become a star because you are adding star value to the company
The word 'star' is misused. A good film will never fail. And if you have become an actor to become a star, then your reason of being in this profession is wrong. It amounts to abusing the art.
