I remember when I was a kid that the only way to see Hulk Hogan wrestle was you'd have to go to the live shows. He was never on TV. So I thought "Why not do the same thing?"

If you don't have the confidence, it doesn't matter what you do, you're always second-guessing yourself.

My favorite type of music to sing would be between R and B and opera.
