Pilou Asbaek

The way I'm portrayed on the Internet is partly my doing, but it's partly the people that are presenting it so, you know, people come to know this strange version of a human. It can be pretty weird because people think I'm digging through dumpsters and smell like crap all the time.

Mac DeMarco

How are people who are young and look like Oscar [Grant] portrayed in the media? You gotta think about that.

Michael B. Jordan

I want to change the bad boy image that has stuck for a bit because I don't think I am at all how I have been portrayed. I would like that to change because it's awful to hear and read what is said of you.
