I hesitate to direct even though I feel I contribute a lot on a set.
My tendency is to be quiet and to stay focused and in character. Not the entire time, but certainly to stay focused while I'm on set.
In terms of watching other directors, it's more like I go on set now, and I'm prepared, as an actor, and ready to give them everything, but at the same time, you observe how everybody else does it because there's always something to learn.
I could never be a movie star and get up at 7:30 to be at someone else's studio.

I love to sing - whenever I am not on set, I am usually in my room jamming out with my guitar.
The truth is, I just love to work. I love being on set. I love being around crews. I love being around my fellow actors. Anything that can keep that going is a joy for me.
