I think possibly, as an artist, you're always treated with a certain respect but also with a certain sort of nervousness.
Yes, I am complimented on my work in Kids in the Hall once or twice a week. It's a nice feeling.
One time, someone came up to me and said, 'I know so-and-so. They're a professor at Harvard. They're a big fan of your work.' But that doesn't impress me more than any other people feeling that way.
You can't always be in awe of someone's talent, living with them.
Maybe it took a little time, or we're a little late, but finally we're recognizing that international stars are fantastic. They're the greatest actors in the world, and few people know that.
There's people that are just in awe of what you do, and then there are people who just think it's garbage. And I think there are people who are just uncomfortable seeing someone have fun with their job.
I've always felt that I would rather see an actor, writer, or musician's work, rather than actually know the person. If you know too much about an artist, it somehow lessens their ability to do their work as well.
I enjoy my own songs, but I can never love them in the way that I can love someone else's song.
