We as comics do want an immediate response from the audience. It's really quiet on the set, and there are only the producers, and the director, so a comic is looking for someone to give a reaction, even if it is the camera guy.

I want to be a little more dramatic nowadays. I definitely want something big and funny, but I look for things that can just have people see me in a different light and let me mature as both an entertainer and an actor and a comedian.

I've been blessed to have a long career.

It is a big world that we live in, and people have a choice to love who they love.

I love stand up and it keeps me grounded, to say the stuff I have been thinking without anyone changing it.

Respond, don't react.
