“My mom was a big 'Smurfs' fan, so she would force me to watch every Saturday morning. I had no choice in the matter.

“There was a point in my teenage years, when we were starting to play bigger shows and females were running after tour buses and all that, and my mom - and I remember this like it was yesterday - said: 'Look, I want you to know that I couldn't be prouder of you. You are extraordinary. You move people. But it doesn't make you better than them. You still put your pants on the same way as them, one leg at a time every morning.' I thought about learning to jump right into them, just to mess with her. But what she said stuck with me, and I think it's true.” PeopleThinkingKnowsWayWantYearsLooksSaidStillsPlayShowsRunningRememberMovingMorningMomFemaleBiggerExtraordinaryStartingLegsMy MomYesterdayStuckMessBusPantsEvery MorningI Want YouTeenageTeenage Years Author:Justin Timberlake

“When I went home, my family became a little lonely family because it was just me and my mom. Part of my longing to go back to work was wanting to be surrounded by these people who were teaching me things and drinking bad coffee at three in the morning while we were lying around in a bikini in the winter. Somehow it just felt like real life. It felt more like real life than my life.” PeopleLittlesRealHomeLyingThreeFeltMorningTeachingMomLonelyMy FamilyLongingDrinkingWinterMy MomCoffeeReal LifeBack To WorkBikinis Author:Jodie Foster
