Time helps a lot. I found the fame thing really was a torment
for a while. Then you learn to deal with it.

I go around the world dealing with running and hiding.. I can't
take a walk in the park . I can't go to the store .. I have to
hide in the room. You feel like you're in prison.

I wanted
to have a place that I could create everything that I never
had as a child. So, you see rides. You see animals. There's
a movie theater. I was always on tour, traveling.

Man, meeting
Michael
Jordan for me was like.. black Jesus walking towards me.
It was overwhelming to me to finally meet the guy I've looked
up to my whole life.

My balance
comes from my family. I have reality around me, and they tell
me when I need to calm down, take it down a couple notches.
Then they tell me when I do something good. I think what celebrities
lose is that they lose touch with reality because everybody
kind of works for them and they just want their job. But my
family doesnt care.

The drama
and the demands and the pressure and all of the people giving
you so much access to so many things can be too much. So couple
that with everyone telling you you're so this and so that and
so perfect and of course you can lose yourself.

Being a
public person doesn't necessarily mean you're a piece of meat
for everybody. It's like saying someone has the right to rape
you because they saw a nude picture of you.

I think
a lot of people that wind up being public figures, there might
be some degree of insecurity that leads you to desire that kind
of attention.
