It's funny, in a way the actor is a writer. It's not like the two things are so separate as to be like apples and oranges. The writer and the actor are one.
Sometimes, for me, lyrics are derived from poems that I'm working on, and they kind of cross back and forth between the two.
Science and art sometimes can touch one another, like two pieces of the jigsaw puzzle which is our human life, and that contact may be made across the boderline between the two respective domains.
I don't think of fashion as fashion or biology as biology.
I dont separate my work with the band from this solo project-Im sure the group could have recorded any of these, and they would have if the Fleetwood Mac project had come up at this time. I dont have any finished songs lying around.
There's a certain line between jokes and music and poetry that's a bit blurred in my mind.
I guess at a certain point you think, well, singing is singing and acting is acting.
I never really separated painting and literature.
Genres aren't closed boxes. Stuff flows back and forth across the borders all the time.
I started as a visual artist and I've always dealt with music in that same sort of way.
One thing helps the other. My stand-up helps my writing; my writing helps my stand-up; my stand-up helps my acting. They're all interlocked.
It's incredible how big a part of my acting career music has become. I get asked about it all the time, and I love it. It's one of my favorite things, and I'm so glad that I get to sort of work that in.
The boundaries between contemporary art and cinema are so rigid. It's unbelievable. The film critics don't know my artwork and the art world doesn't know my films.
There are things that I will always shoot, but now that the modeling and acting worlds are becoming very close, you can do a little bit of one and more of the other.
I've had people - I've seen people do routines that I knew they didn't take from me but they had - because for whatever reason I had stopped doing it a long time ago. There's no way they would have heard this bit. But it ends up being pretty much the same thing.
Abroad, they have covered pretty much all subjects, explored every possibility, every twist. So similarities between ideas you have and those filmed abroad are quite possible.
Recording and touring are totally separate universes for me and it's strange and refreshing when they invade each other momentarily.
To me, comedy and music are not even really separate entities.
I think there is some overlap in terms of artistic desires and Christian desires.
There are only so many hilarious actors so when they cross-pollinate, people assume it's always the same actors and directors.
