My mum literally drives into Skid Row every day and manages teams that are assembled to walk around and engage with usually chronically homeless people and try to get them into permanent housing.
As one of the first creators on YouTube, I’ve been fortunate to sit in the front row, witnessing the remarkable evolution of digital media. The experiences and knowledge I’ve been afforded are invaluable, and I’m excited to take that skill set, together with Endemol Beyond, to build a reliable, reputable business.
Coming from a standing background in striking, I couldn’t catch up to the guys with 20-plus years of training on the ground. I had to learn submissions. I found out it wasn’t an easy road. I had six losses in a row, but I still felt I was the best fighter in the world.
I can do all my jumps in practice, three in a row, five out of five, four out of five.
Think about how much fashion profits from black culture and how underrepresented we are in the industry. If you insist on using black celebrities to peddle your merchandise and add a cool factor to your front row, it is indecent to not care about the plights of that person’s community.
At the age of eight, I auditioned for ‘The Sound of Music’ and made it through to the third round, where we all stood in a row like the Von Trapp family and had to sing.
I would say that, first of all, if you have the honor of being chosen to produce the Oscars, you usually get only one crack at it. We were the first people in sixteen years to do it three times in a row, and it was one of the most profound experiences you could ever imagine.
When there’s a great horror movie, people are like, ‘Horror’s back!’ And when there’s a series of not so good ones, ‘Horror’s dead.’ I think it’s all about the quality. When there are one or two good horror movies in a row, people come out interested again.
You can’t do opera when already from the 10th row you can only see little dolls on the stage. In such an enormous space you can’t put much faith in the personal presence of the individual singer, which is reflected in facial expressions, among other things.
Skid Row would probably be my favorite Jersey band.
I was in Sweden for 10 days. They put me on the front page of the daily papers eight days in a row. I did nothing to warrant any of the attention. It was ridiculous.
Have I felt misunderstood by Music Row at times? Of course.
If you don’t physically age gracefully, it’s a bit sad. I think Steven Tyler can get away anything, because he still looks like he did in ’73. Especially from row Z backwards in an arena. As long as the Stones keep their hair and don’t get fat they’ll get away with the wrinkles.
The campaign trail can be super ephemeral in that you travel so long in a row that all the days kind of blur together, and it can be hard to lay down markers to remember where you were.
I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three.
I can’t dance to save my life, really – proper, proper dad dancing – but I was once at a wrap party for a show, and at the end of the night, they still hadn’t played ‘Dancing Queen’. So we extended the wrap party for 40 minutes and played ‘Dancing Queen’ 11 times in a row.
I watched R.E.M. connect with the back row of a 50,000-seat venue.
This sport is growing. It’s about patience, rather than getting caught up in five in a row, want a title shot, main event. The goal is to put on a great fight and be smart.
I naively thought I had to go door to door, find somebody who could record me singing some songs. I didn’t know Music Row, I didn’t know anything! So after six or seven months, I went back home and went to college.
I remember going to ‘The Wood’ and leaving my friend and my mom, who I came with, to go sit in the front row because I was so excited.
For a food lover with a big imagination, there’s nothing worse than eating the exact same meal several days in a row.
Folks, I’ve been straight for seventeen days… Not all in a row.
I’ve worked so hard, I’ve won a lot in my junior career, did great things in my amateur career, was 6-0 in match play in NCAAs, won NCAAs two years in a row, got third individually one year, and now I have three wins out here on the PGA Tour.
In death row every rule in society is flipped.
Early on, I had five jobs in a row where I was either fired or canceled.
Let’s be real: it’s not always the No. 1 contenders who get the title shots. It’s who they invest money in and who’s kind of a known name. In the lighter weights, just being that I fought seven title fights in a row, I think I’m that guy.
I’ve worked in the prison system, on death row and maximum security. I did that work for six years. I’ve worked with some of the most difficult people in our society. Buddhism was accessible and helpful for these individuals.
Some stars can make five or six failures in a row and continue to work – with a raise. I can’t figure how that works. Maybe foreign sales or a smart agent.
Illinois is large, but we do not always receive our fair share of federal resources because our leadership is often divided. When we all row together, good things happen.
Having an automobile in Los Angeles enables me to change clothes at least three times a day: I will go from western wear to nautical to Savile Row in the course of 12 hours.
I went back and started reading with Thor’s first appearance, and my goal is to read all 600-plus issues in a row.
Since 1957, black people have experienced double-digit unemployment – in good times and bad times. Look at the population of African Americans in prison. They represent more than half the population of prisoners in the country, 55 percent of those on death row.
Losing one final, that happens, but when it happens three times in a row, that is something else entirely.
I thought I would go win 100 in a row with 100 knockouts.
We can’t afford to go lose two, three in a row. We’ve got to keep climbing and getting wins.
Real are really powerful in attack, really strong in defence, and have a balanced midfield. There’s a reason they’ve won two Champions Leagues in a row.
Once youve got a name, whatever you do is news. If your marriage breaks up of course its big news but even if you have a row with the planners it makes the nationals.
I live by the sea, but the body of water I have the most feeling about is the Mississippi River, where I used to row and skate, ride on the ferry in childhood, watch the logs or just dream.
Everybody had a bad day. It’s possible to have two bad days in a row. And in this sport, it’s so unforgiving.
After one party loses two elections in a row, there’s sort of blood in the water.
I represented a man on death row whose lawyers had spent all of eight hours looking into his claim of innocence. I met men whose lawyers had never looked into their backgrounds.
Being undefeated, Gelo and Melo winning 60 games in a row, my boys don’t lose too much.
Some of my greatest memories are of sleep-away camp; I did that three summers in a row when I was, like, 9,10, and 11.
To win a Grand Slam, you have to win seven matches in a row, and it’s very different physically and mentally from other tournaments.
With me, traveling for work is arriving at the airport, checking into the hotel, leaving the hotel the next morning at 4 or 5 to do something like ‘The Jimmy and Jackie Captain Crazy Morning Zoo,’ doing a bunch of those in a row, then going back to the hotel, and then finally going to the club.
I once made the mistake of going for a whole row of false eyelashes, which was just wrong as it gave me a sad, puppy-eyed look.
You may have done 20 great shows in a row and come to one, and it doesn’t work. You never presume anything.
I’m never at my best on television. There’s a row of cameras between you and the audience, and it’s very weird, very confusing.
I sort of half read Thomas Hardy’s ‘The Mayor of Casterbridge.’ It was assigned in 10th grade, and I just couldn’t get into it. About seven years later, I rediscovered Hardy and consumed four of his novels in a row.
Championship caliber teams don’t lose two in a row and they damn sure don’t lose three in a row.
The few times in my life where I had four or five movies in a row, it was a nightmare. I felt trapped. I felt like my life was planned for a year and a half or two years, and it was terrible. Most of the time, everything collapsed.
You can’t control the quality of projects that are coming to you, so if you get several in a row that are quality, you take them.
If I win seven tournaments in a row, I get so confident I’m in a cloud. A loss gets me eager again.
I’m a higgledy-piggledy person in every way. On days that I work, I work for eight hours in a row, with my internet access entirely turned off, locked in my office.
Time management is probably the biggest thing I’ve had to learn to deal with being on the PGA Tour, whether it be media or figuring out how many weeks to play in a row. That’s been the biggest adjustment, coming from amateur and college golf.
I started out in the Apollo Theater. That’s where I got my start. I won Amateur Night four weeks in a row.
Thanks to my new job, I got a front row seat. I crossed the country covering the race, first between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama and then between Obama and McCain. It was the political story of a lifetime.
