Quotes

I want to show the world my humor.

I have my Lucky Charms in the morning, and I feel magical.

Bad news travels at the speed of light good news travels like molasses.

The most romantic thing I ever did to my woman? I painted her toenails!,I do stand up sometimes out of anger. Sometimes the greatest stuff comes from a dark place.

I deal with my sons like young men. If they have a problem with something, they come to me. I am the type of dad that will drop everything I am doing for them, and always tell them to talk to me about it.

My father was the role model I looked up to. My dad was an entertainer, too. I patterned my life after him. He wanted me to do better than he did. He never sold a record in his life, but to me, he was still a rock star. .
