The first person I ever really got starstruck over was Nicole Kidman, because I looked up to her. When I was younger, I wouldn't get parts because of how tall I was. I had the body of a 15-year-old but the face of a 12-year-old. I always looked at Nicole Kidman and thought, 'Oh well, she works.'
There has always been a strange dissonance between the public and the private in Nigeria.
The relationship with my people, the Nigerian people, is very good. My relationship with the rulers has always been problematic.
I am, always have been, and always will be proud of my Nigerian heritage.
I've always been a fan of Nigerian artist D'banj. He's now signed to Kanye West's Good Music label.
I have always hated nightclubs, and don't like loud music.
As for my identity within the context of New York nightlife? I left in the '90s, so I'm not part of the scene anymore. I'll always be interested in what's happening downtown, and I try and keep up with the changing faces on social media.
The 'trap' sound is a sound from the city. We've always liked music with bass. We've always liked old schools with big speakers in the trunks. We like our music loud. We've always had a nightlife scene in Atlanta.
I always wished for this, but it's almost turning into more of a nightmare than a dream.
I've always been a Nike person.
My Nike Airs are always on my feet when I travel.
The goalkeeper always starts again at nil, even when you're 2-0 down. It always starts again at scratch. It's a completely mental thing, and I keep reminding myself of it during matches.
I've always liked the heavier stuff. I've always loved Tool and System of a Down, Korn and Nine Inch Nails.
Most men think graft a sporadic evil, breaking out here and there, with no connection between outbreaks. I shared the same opinion, but very soon I discovered that the graft in the cities always leads to the graft in the State.
I had no desire to be an film actress, to always play somebody else, to be always beautiful with somebody constantly straightening out your every eyelash. It was always a big bother to me.
Stars are almost always people that want to make up for their own weaknesses by being loved by the public and I'm no exception to that.
I was always struck by how Picasso had no interest in music.
No law of nature, however general, has been established all at once; its recognition has always been preceded by many presentiments.
I always thought that if I got no love at all early in my standup career, or I was god awful, I thought I'd get into psychology.
It's no secret that I love the country, and Japan has always felt like a second home to me.
