I think representation is the most important thing in the world. People who are young look up to the things that they see in the media. They want to relate and to be able to say, ‘Wow, I can be successful.’
I just wanted to finally release something that sounded really fun, and ‘Must Be Love’ is that song! I’m telling you, I went to the Philippines and sang that live for everyone, and everyone was singing along, and I thought, ‘Wow!’ Everyone was singing this song back to me because everyone loves love.
The first I paid to see with my own money was ‘Laputa Castle In The Sky.’ And I was like, wow! I really shocked by it. So I want to make movies that have a similar impact on the audience to that.
I play a character in the WWE and everybody hates my character. I’m the evil villain bad guy. Whenever people meet me, they’re like, ‘Wow, you’re such a nice guy. We never expected that.’
I love it when a few simple ingredients come together on a plate, and I think, ‘Wow, that’s a dish.’
I’m blessed, and… all the time, I sit and think, ‘Wow.’
Soundgarden signing to a major, then Mother Love Bone, and seeing the same happen to Alice in Chains. We were all suddenly making music and recording at the same time, and we had money to do it. It wasn’t like a $2,000 recording that you do over a weekend. It’s like, ‘Wow, maybe this will be our job.’
As far as past men go, I loved Jeff Hardy. He reminds me of my husband in a way. He’s quieter but has a presence in the ring that’s, like, wow.
When all of a sudden, people say, ‘Wow, you look nice,’ and carry on, it’s shocking. Really awkward.
Because society places a value on masculinity, gay men aspire to it. If you go to a gay club and the doorman says, ‘You do realise this is a gay club, don’t you lads?’ you get all excited because you think, ‘Wow, he thought I was straight!’
When I was a teenager, I used to come to Selfridges, and it was very swanky and overwhelming, and I’d think, ‘Wow, this is amazing.’ I would never have imaged having my own area in the beauty hall! It’s incredible.
I’m not saying I look at those pictures all the time and think, ‘Wow, I was hot.’ Just, you know, I think everybody deserves to be objectified at least once in their life.
I used to write my books at night when I was a freelancer with no children. I used to really work in huge spurts – I could turn around a revision in two weeks, I used to be able to write 10,000 words a day. It’s like, ‘Wow, what happened to that?’ That’s just gone.
Years go by. I go here, I go there, I have all sorts of adventures, and then I look back and say, ‘Wow that’s kind of an unusual way to live your life.’
I’ll see something, and I’ll go, ‘Oh, wow, that’s interesting,’ because really, comedy comes from the truth.
It was in 1969, and I thought, wow, you know, I really didn’t want to do a TV series. You know, I had my own act, and I was performing in Vegas and doing all of these exciting things.
When I design a car, I want people to look at it and go, ‘Wow, that’s kind of interesting,’ and do a second take.
In Canadian comedy, you’ll almost never see guns. If you bring a gun into a scene, it’s like, ‘Whoa! Wow, how are we going to deal with that!’ Guns in an American comedy are a given. Violence in America is used in a much more cavalier way.
There are fans of some of the old movies that’ll mention those, and there’s people that have little kids that’ll look at me and say, ‘Wow, I just watched ‘Honey, I Shrunk the Kids’ 35,000 times, and here you are!’
For actors, when you first get the project and you see that it’s a Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman-produced project, right away, from an acting standpoint, you go, ‘Wow. That’d be great to be part of that. What a career move that’d be.’
I started doing some demos and got online and bought a refurbished laptop, bought a microphone off of eBay. A lot of folks said you can’t really do it that way at a pro level, but I did some vocals that way, turned it into the label and they said, ‘Wow, where did you record this? The vocals sound great!’
I think the best thing about being pregnant would definitely have to be seeing just my belly grow and seeing, like, wow, there is, you know, something inside of me.
I just want to make art that connects with people and moves them on an emotional level. Any time I can put out music and place a story behind it and have people watch it and go, ‘Wow, I was affected by that,’ to me, feels like I’ve done my job.
I may see somebody in a club one night and go, Wow, she’s the most attractive girl I’ve seen in a long time. Then I’ll see her the next night and be like, Oh no, I don’t think so.
So many people have told me that ‘Wicked’ is their first musical ever and that they’re hooked for life. I’m like, ‘Wow, you really got it right when you picked this show to be your first one.’
When I got the phone call that I was told I was Peter Pan, I freaked out, because I was like, ‘Wow! How does that happen?’ But pretty much, from there on, everyone’s been so lovely.
You’ve got to have fun in life. Otherwise, wow – imagine life without fun.
There’s no need to put a dumb picture of us on the album cover. We always look at ourselves and think, ‘Wow, we look like idiots.’ We’d rather have a piece of art on there.
I travel all over the world, usually 10 months out of the year. I stay at a lot of hotels, and the ones I like best are clean and not complicated. You go to bed and say, ‘Wow, I feel comfortable.’
To get the Red Bull junior drive was like a massive pressure off… I didn’t have to go around asking Mum and Dad to sell their house or ask friends for funding. The instant feeling was, ‘Oh wow, amazing.’
In life, my childish behavior is the good kind, not to where it’s annoying and, ‘Wow, someone sit him down and give him a bottle, give him a Pamper.’ It’s like, ‘This situation is very heavy, but RJ is here, so he’ll lighten things up a little.’
I started as a straight actor. I’d go onstage, and I’d think, ‘Wow, this is the only thing I want to work really hard at. I will rehearse fifty times on a single scene; I don’t care – I’ll do it again.’
I’ve always liked and appreciated storytellers like Garry Shandling and Bill Cosby – more long-form comedy. So starting in San Francisco, watching all these great comics – Patton Oswalt, Dave Chappelle – you get to see them a bunch, and you go, ‘Wow, this is where I need to be.’
Do people ever ask me to say ‘Wow?’ Never in interviews, but a few times on the street. I don’t do it. I try to get away from them as quickly as possible and explain that I’m not a performing seal.
I’d always loved strings. When I was in high school and saw strings playing on stage, an orchestra or a symphony, all those bows moving at the same time… wow.
I could remember thinking when I met him, ‘Wow, that’s Andy Sanders from Houston. He’s really good.’ And he tells me he said, ‘Wow, that’s Jimmy Walker. He hits it really far.’
I know that my grandfather is 92 years old. And he has seen this country evolve in amazing ways. He looks at South Carolina and he says, wow, what an amazing state that we have the blessing to live within because of the evolution.
I was playing little league baseball when Bruce Jenner was winning the gold, but I don’t think I was really paying attention at that time. It wasn’t until 1980 – I think I was 12 years old – that I thought, ‘Wow that’s what I want to do. I want to be on the Olympic team.’
My first contract with WCW was, like, $70,000 a year. I didn’t know you could make that kind of money doing this. I was like, ‘Wow. I think I’m going to stick around for a long time.’
In 2013, I got a phone call out of the blue from Jason Sudeikis. He said there was an NBC commercial that they wanted him to do, and if we did it, we’d get to go to London for three days. I thought, ‘Wow, three days in London. Unbelievable!’
I’m an idol of cinema? Oh, wow.
A lot of times you don’t see that, doesn’t matter when they’re drafted, first round or not. You usually don’t see guys come in and wow you.
But I will say that Harve Presnell… he was one of those guys who, when you’re standing in a room with him… he’s such an older masculine force that I remember thinking, ‘Wow, his voice makes me sound like Pee-Wee Herman.’
I don’t go, ‘I’m in the papers all the time,’ because there are loads of people in the papers all the time. Sometimes I’m still like, ‘Ooh, look- there’s me!’ I’m never like, ‘Wow, look at me on the bus.’ You have to be a bit grounded about things like that.
I put a spell on people so they don’t know they’re working out… An enchanting spell, where they just don’t think about it, or over think it, and then at the end they go, ‘Wow, I feel good.’
It’s crazy to call myself as the sexiest woman. I’m like, wow; this is cool. Looking at the past years, I was expecting 5th or 6th position. But standing on the 3rd position was totally unexpected.
You think of, like, Justin Timberlake. He does a three-hour performance every night, and it’s like, wow, I don’t know how that guy does it.
I’ve always said that the experience of meeting an artist that you are in awe of and that you hope to create with one day is usually disappointing because you put them up on a pedestal, and then you’re like, ‘Wow, that’s not a nice person.’
When you look at martial arts films, the later ones became more and more exaggerated. It’s like, wow, is martial arts only a show?
