There's that stigma about New Yorkers, how they're so mean, but in my experience it was quite the opposite. People were very genuine and very nice, even on the subway.

I'm not going to complain to New Yorkers about working too hard.

I think the most interesting New Yorkers are the people who were not born here.

New Yorkers aren't that friendly, but they're still pretty friendly, and they're hardworking, passionate people.

I don't do the L.A. scene. I stay focused and very myopic. I don't feel I need to prove myself or be in people's faces, especially in this town.

People hate cardio. I hate cardio. But pick the five top songs that you love. Do your cardio during these songs, and you're done. I'd say 95 percent of the time you don't even know you just did it.
