Before I joined The Beach Boys, I was working at Columbia Records as a producer, and saw The Byrds come in and do their first overdub before Terry even met them.
It doesn’t matter where I am, what I do, whether I’m in the sauna, whether I’m on the beach, whether I’m with my girl at the spa – man’s never hot. It’s that simple.
JLS got the biggest reception at T4 On The Beach – it was like whoa, OK!
With any free time I have, I’d take a high energy work out class at Soul Cycle, grab an outdoor bite somewhere by the beach and then finish it off by lounging at my pool.
There’s an ease that I have living in Australia. The best things about Sydney are free: the sunshine’s free, and the harbour’s free, and the beach is free.
I am a pretty emotional person. Any act of kindness or unkindness moves me. When I see a romantic couple sitting by the beach, it moves me. I don’t break down or crack under pressure, but I am just sensitive.
We are the hope to this world because this nation was dedicated with little white crosses that were marked along the beaches down by Virginia Beach and Plymouth that were marked and said we dedicate this land to take the Gospel to the nations and once the Gospel is taken to the nations we usher in the return of the Lord.
As a child, I spent a lot of summers going to the beach with family friends.
Our home in Dubai is a beach house, so it’s more casual and not formal in its tone. It’s a holiday home. We are mostly in the pool or on the beach or in the sun. It’s an outdoor place for the family. So there are mudbikes, a boat, football posts, and the pool is heated.
The great thing about the Island is you’ve got room. You can go for a bike ride. We’re 20 minutes to a beach, and you can get on the beach and go for a long walk.
Quite honestly, I live in California in the off season. Going off to Green Bay is just like two different walks of life – I hunt, fish, practice with firearms. Back in California, it’s spend time at the beach, go to the movies.
I wrote large chunks of ‘The Impostor’ and ‘The Good Doctor’ on a beach in Goa.
In a film, I can show you the beach, the sunset, the roads, while in a play you have to imagine all that.
I went to New York and Miami and hung out by the beach, and I love the American boys, so I wrote a song about it.
The South Coast is not teeming with fish any more; there are no fleets of trawlers left. Small local boats land their fish daily and often sell it at the back of the beach, a scenario repeated all the way from West Bay to Whitstable.
I hang out with the right people, my friends that I’ve had since the beginning. We go to the beach, take walks, paint, see our family – just normal things that people who become famous lose sight of.
I remember having this friend in school who said she didn’t like the Beach Boys. And in that moment I knew we couldn’t be friends anymore.
I remember the first time I heard ‘The Thunder Rolls.’ It was dark, and we were driving to the beach. There was the thunder outside and the thunder in the song. It was eerie.
From the beginning, I knew I wanted a beach wedding so I’m thankful looking back that this is how everything turned out.
I used to go to the beach everyday in Rio!
There’s a lot of talent in South Central L.A., in Compton and Long Beach and Watts, and the city north of Pico pretty much sits back and waits for that talent to emerge and then steps in.
Couples without kids have each other, their friends, families, and Siri to talk to. It’s not like they’re quarantining themselves in an underground bunker, never to take a romantic stroll on the beach or attend a Morrissey concert ever again. They’re just using birth control.
I’m always out in the sun. I’m a big hiker and beach gal, so its really important for me to always have SPF on, which is something that you’ve got to find for your skin type.
Opening day is always so cool to be a part of and to people watch. The Pacific Classic, which I’ve had the privilege of riding in a couple of times, is great. Every day at Del Mar is fantastic. I love the smells, working out on the beach, running the stairs. It’s just a healthy environment. I love it.
I love the beach and rock climbing and boxing and nature, so I like to stay away from my phone as much as possible.
My best friends are just girls who go to school. They’re not in the industry, and we have dinner nights and learn how to cook together and go on hiking trails and the beach.
I’m the type of person who far prefers a vacation filled with trips to museums and art galleries, shopping and exploring vintage flea markets, people-watching at cafes, and discovering delicious restaurants as opposed to lounging on a beach for days on end.
One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach.
My ideal beach house has bookshelves full of paperbacks that can tolerate a little sand, a DVD library that includes some Disney classics for the little ones, board games, and jigsaw puzzles. At least one big flatscreen television is a must.
At Pebble Beach, even on your good shots, you’ve got to hit it to the correct side of the holes to save pars.
I do live a weirdly divided life, because I’m not a Hollywood superstar, I don’t live on Malibu Beach, I don’t do massive ‘OK!’ spreads, I don’t go to premieres and parties that much.
Wherever I am in the world, my perfect day begins with waking up and heading to the beach or the pool or somewhere I can be semi-comatose. I just wake up and go to the sun.
‘Laguna Beach’ was definitely not as manufactured as ‘The Hills’ was for me. ‘Laguna Beach’ was more putting us in situations where we normally wouldn’t be in or hanging out with people we wouldn’t necessarily hang out with.
In 2013, after living in New York for 18 years, I decided to leave Manhattan for a fresh start in Palm Beach.
The nice thing about e-books is that if you’re sitting on the beach and you finish one Elin Hilderbrand novel and don’t want to get out of your chair, you can sit there, buy the rest, and load them on your device.
I could take you for a walk on the beach and I could point out just about any creature and give you their Latin names.
My ideal holiday would be to spend the first week doing lots of fun stuff, then to spend the second week relaxing on a beach.
We came from the ’60s era, when we started and made so many hits. The song value from the ’60s was so darn good, you’ve got The Beatles, The Beach Boys, all of Motown, and plenty of other people, too… amazing records, amazing songs.
Virginia Beach is just such a melting pot for so many different things, and they just have so many influences. I would always say that the area definitely influences Play Cloths. The area itself just has so many influences, whether it be fashion, music, everything.
A fisherman, say, working on a beach doing his job, may be photographed by a tourist because it’s photogenic to see him working, and the Caribbean is extremely photogenic, so poverty is photogenic, and a lot of people are photographed in their poverty, and sometimes it’s kind of exploited.
It’s good to get your hands dirty a bit and to test how you see things at a given point. And it’s very pleasing after writing something like ‘Atonement’ or ‘On Chesil Beach,’ which are historical, to get involved in some plausible re-enactment of the here and now.
It’s definitely different than living in Los Angeles or Miami Beach, but Milwaukee is still a great city in its own right. As far as the baseball goes, it’s been everything and more than I thought it was going to be.
But I try to steal other moments. Sometimes I get up very early in the morning and enjoy a quiet house and cup of tea before the craziness begins. Other times, I’ll take a quick walk on the beach. You can find peace in a few minutes.
I was the kind of kid that always loved babies. I was, you know, four years old, and I would have my baby doll that I would bring with me everywhere and fake breastfeed on the beach and diaper.
I really spent most of my childhood in my bedroom watching Barbra Streisand movies and musicals and making videos. That was kind of where it all started for me. I would go to the beach occasionally.
The thing is with hip-hop, it has its waves and the waves crash against the beach and the new waves come in. So to stay relevant you have to roll with that.
I like to think that the Grand Prix helped Long Beach to pretty much change its image.
I made this film ‘The Beach,’ which didn’t take place in a city, and it didn’t really suit me.
It’s funny, but when I arrived in California to start college I was much more interested in becoming a surfer and cruise along in life from one beach to the next. I didn’t plan out any huge career for myself.
I typically enjoy a beautiful beach destination, as I find the water and sand to be the most replenishing.
I’ve always had this thing for swimming pools – I think they’re much sexier and far more glamorous than the beach, in a way. You dress differently when you’re spending a day at an amazing pool than you would dress for the beach.
Holiday? Is like, what? I’m a hyperactive girl, so it may be boring for me to be on the beach doing nothing. I just need to find a place for three weeks and work but sleep in the morning, maybe write a little bit, have a glass of red wine. That’s my perfect holiday.
Beaches are really important to me, and I love Sennen Cove and Perranporth Beach.
