I guess I wanted to show people, among other things, that you don’t have to be a hero to get through cancer. You can be a craven coward and get through. You have to stay on your medication and take your treatments, that’s all.
The reason why I called it ‘I Told You’ is because I wanted to show people that I have been doubted, and I have been in the face of adversity. Coming out of that situation, this is my ‘I told you’ moment.
There was a perception that reality-show people are just mere personalities, that they don’t have real talent, and I worked real hard to change peoples’ minds, one show at a time, and proved a lot of people wrong. I’m proud I was the first to do that for ‘Idol’ on Broadway!
We so love to stereotype people in this country – I can relate to that myself as I’ve experienced it. By taking on challenges over the years, I’ve tried to show people I’m not just some ‘posh boy’ and that there’s far more to me.
I’m trying to do what Eddie Murphy did for his generation. You have to show people, ‘I’m different. I’m not just a comedian.’ I’m trying to become a rock star.
I think it’s important to show people, especially young people, that it’s okay to have a personality. And that they can express themselves however they like.
If I can show people how vulnerable and how flawed I am, maybe others will relate.
I want to show people how there are variations and different interpretations of good and evil.
I was like, ‘I have to start writing for myself, to show people what I can do and what my point of view is.’
Everytime there’s an NXT show, people are like, ‘Oh, that’s the greatest thing I’ve ever seen.’ It’s the greatest show on Earth. One of things that they have going for them is the fact they make you wait. They build to it properly. That’s a good way to go at this.
In America it’s good to show people you are fine, you’re healthy, you’re sporty, you’re happy to do things, to live. And in France it’s more like you don’t have to show you have success.
I’m excited to show people I’m not just a girl who wears glitzy outfits and cheers on her man every week.
After I impulsively revealed that I have OCD on a talk show, I was devastated. I often do things without thinking. That’s my ADD/ADHD talking. Out in public, after I did the show, people came to me and said, ‘Me, too.’ They were the most comforting words I’ve ever heard.
I’ve always been a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. I always feel that you should keep singles as commercial as possible so that the people can walk down the road and whistle a song. But on the other hand on albums I think you can afford to show people what you can do.
I just want to show people that the best thing you could ever do for yourself is be yourself.
Because sorry to say, women run the house. They run the family. They hold things up. I mean, it’s like you don’t ever see your mom get sick because she handles everything. And it’s kind of amazing I think to show people just how strong women are.
I want just to show people good things – football is beautiful when you play games like that.
I want to show people my successful side, but I want to show you my bipolar side, too.
It is not enough to show people how to live better: there is a mandate for any group with enormous powers of communication to show people how to be better.
I know, if I am playing well, I can be as good as anyone, and I want to show people who write you off and forget about you.
I grew up in a time where on things like ‘The Red Skeleton Show’ or even to a certain extent on ‘The Carol Burnett Show,’ people wrote in the breakouts or ad-libs. They were scripted to look spontaneous. So I always had a dislike of that kind of thing.
I think what we have going in the Casino Battle Royale is going to show people an exciting, different take on the traditional battle royal format, different than what anybody has done. It’s not going to be two hours of battle royals. It’s going to be really, really action-packed.
I think when we grow up watching TV, the stars seem like stars. You don’t know what they went through. You don’t know how they got it. It almost seems unattainable. With social media, we are able to show people if you work hard, that you can literally do the same thing.
Our goal was to show people a vision of food they hadn’t seen before. So, I had this idea of… let’s cut all these things in half, and show a picture of the food in the pan, in the oven.
With video games, imagine it’s not locked – it’s a TV show people can reach in and do this and do that, and you need to have dialog for all of that stuff.
I’m ready to come out and show people I’m able to play defense.
Every time I go out there I try to bring my A-game and show people I can do more than just shoot.
It’s always great when you get a chance to give someone an opportunity to step outside his envelope and show people that he can do it.
I’ve done history; I’ve done biopics, I’ve done a little bit of comedy. I just want to keep going and show people that you can’t typecast me, you can’t pigeonhole me.
America to me is where I grew up: in Brooklyn, around other black and Latino people who helped and loved each other. I just want to show people that America doesn’t have to be this ‘I’m in the NRA, blah blah blah’ type of place.
I want to show people no matter what they go through there’s a light at the end of the tunnel.
I want to show people who I am, introduce them to my family, where I’ve come from, how I’m helping people with my charity work. I know it sounds boring, but with that comes with a lot and a lot of bumps in the road.
I want to show people that if you walk, if you eat the right things, if you don’t have stuff done to your face – that’s okay.
You can be a successful woman and also be vulnerable, and that’s important to show people.
‘The Voice’ gave me a chance to show people the side of me that is an artist. People didn’t know what that would look like or sound like. It allowed people to see that potential.
I keep working hard to show people they’re wrong.
I was so young when I got so famous, and then I kind of put up a wall around myself. I didn’t really want to show people any fragilities or fears; I was trying to be this tough person that I felt was expected of me.
When I finished my degree at Oxford, I went and acted for a bit. And I was appalling. And with each part, I thought, ‘Well, that’s embarrassing. I’d better do one more to show people I’m not that bad.’ And, in fact, instead of a taking a year, that’s gone on for 35 years.
We want to show people in the U.S. and Europe that hey, here in Southeast Asia, we have so much artists brimming with talent and so deserving. We needed to tap into that so that the West can take notice and sign them up, too.
I want to show people that environmentalism can be fun!
I was proud of ‘Robin Hood,’ even though critics wrote negative things. But I had to laugh when this big, shaven-headed Hungarian stunt guy first saw me. He said, ‘You Jonas? You playing Robin Hood? You need to go to the gym today.’ So I thought, ‘I’m going to show people.’
Directly after the show people might have responded better to it, but who really knows. It did what it did and while it seems like a failure to most but it was a success for me and has given me so many opportunities.
I think it’s really important to show people that there’s nothing different about us; especially as athletes – we train as hard as the Olympians.
I wanted to show people that there’s nothing wrong with trying to make something sacred.
I grew up looking for myself onscreen and never could find myself. And I believe that I am supposed to be Toula to show people that it’s O.K. to be different.
Rather than wait to be discovered, discover yourself. Whatever it is that you intend to do later, start doing it now, get good at it, and show people what you’ve done. Actions speak louder than words.
People know if you care about them. How do you show people that you care? By caring for them. By putting their needs first. By sacrificing for them. By serving them. Do that, and you’ll build a great team.
At Plymouth I wrote ‘Neil Warnock’s Wembley Way’, a one-year diary, to show people what being a manager was like. I got lucky as the year ended with us winning promotion through the play-offs at Wembley.
Combining magic with technology is a good way to influence the trajectory of where technology is going and show people what technology could be in our lives and what it shouldn’t be.
I just want everybody to know my music and get to know my squad, Remy Boyz; just to show people New Jersey. New Jersey got talent, too. I mean, everybody sleeps on us, and they put us as the underdog.
I always wanted my work to speak for itself but I realized you have to show people a little bit of yourself and interact with them, especially before your film releases.
Fox News Latino will show people how opportunities exist, that whenever we are overregulated, or there is too much government, we lose freedom. We lose power. That is, historically, one hundred percent true.
I am constantly struggling to show people that there is more to me than my appearance. You do have to try and overcome those hurdles. Female actresses need to be given the chance to be more than how they look.
I don’t wear a lot of makeup ever, even when I do interviews or when I’m on TV. I just keep it me, and I think it’s important to show people I’m a regular person and regular people are beautiful, too.
