I hate people thinking I'm some pretentious fraud.
It's hard being a Barbie doll all the time.
When I speak to people from Britain, that's when I feel like a fake, speaking with an American accent.
I turned myself to face me, but I've never caught a glimpse of how the others must see the faker.
My whole life I've been a fraud. I'm not exaggerating. Pretty much all I've ever done all the time is try to create a certain impression of me in other people. Mostly to be liked or admired. It's a little more complicated than that, maybe. But when you come right down to it it's to be liked, loved. Admired, approved of, applauded, whatever. You get the idea.
For the longest time, I still tried to hold up this act - this nice-guy, superhero, role-model persona - that wasn't really me and wasn't serving me.
'The Apprentice' was a huge success, and Trump was a huge television star who managed to trick people into thinking he was the guy from the show.
I put up a front to make people think I had all of this confidence in myself, which I didn't.
I'm not as cool as I'm supposed to be.
When you have a star, he becomes the focus of a variety show, and he has to take himself seriously. But with Super Dave, it's all phony anyway.
... a charlatan, a mountebank, a zany without sense or dignity.
Referring to William Jennings Bryan:
I cannot come and suddenly put on a persona. Like, I cannot be Mike Tyson. When you saw him it was raw, it was intense, 'I want to hurt you.' But now everybody tries it. I don't enjoy that. It's not real.
Thank heaven Election Day is over. No more campaign ads, no more mud-slinging, no more candidates pretending they're straight. It's over!
Jimmy Kimmel still comes across like a guy who crashed a party and got caught at it, yet adamantly refuses to leave.
I promise you, I'm fake sometimes, but other times I'm like, dude sit down.
Al Gore couldn't be more phony if he were a professional Al Gore impersonator
Most actors and actresses are performative as people.
Of all the things I do, acting is the thing that grabs most, but there's another level on which it strikes me as being a little silly. In the end you're dressing up and deciding to be somebody.
I beat myself up the whole time because I'm striving for something I'll basically never achieve. I portray this image of confidence, of arrogance, and it's not really me. I'm never satisfied, and I'm never content. It means I'm a bit of a mess some of the time.
I didn't go Hollywood on the outside with flashy cars, upstairs maids and mink-covered bathroom fixtures. I went Hollywood on the inside, and that's worst of all. I tried to avoid being natural. I lowered my voice. I copied the mannerisms of other stars. I struck poses.
A creep is someone who claims he's one thing but he's actually another.
As I get older, I find myself way more into sports. I'm in a basketball league. You maybe know some of the people in it. They're real people, not fake ones like me.
Curtis Curtis jackson..he's the fakest thug I ever did see
If you're trying too hard to be the girl next door, you're not going to be.
When you're pretending to be something you're not, at least for me, you end up falling on your face.
