I got a role in Pearl Harbor within a week of getting to L.A. My head swelled. I spent all my money in two months and then didn`t work for another six. Luckily, Grandma hooked a brother up.
- Sean FarisCarson is an old family name, though my grandma used to watch Johnny all the time and was crazy about him.
- Carson DalyI`m scared of dolls. When I was a little kid, we used to go to my grandma`s house and she`d have all these porcelain dolls and they are just freaky. They have those little painted faces on them...and ugh! They used to scare the crap out of me.
- Chad Michael MurrayI love leather and it`s great to be a bad girl at times. But there is a time and place for everything. When I`m with Grandma it`s flowers, and when I`m out on the town scoping guys, you know...
- Eliza Dushku(oeing raised by young parents) We all grew up together. My parents were so young. My dad hates it when I talk about our past, about not having things, living with grandma, wearing thrift-store clothes, cutting coupons.
- Jessica AlbaI got caught playing doctor in my grandma`s garage, but, you know, it was very minor, just like sticking things in the heinie. (quoted in Playboy 05-2003)
- Kelly PrestonI don`t think these women are stupid. I think they`re selling a personality that`s very marketable: Wouldn`t it be fun if we were all gorgeous and didn`t have a care? But creating a cultural icon out of someone who goes, "I`m stupid, isn`t it cute?" makes me want to throw daggers at them! I want to say to them, "My grandma did not fight for what she fought for, and my mother did not fight for what she fought for, so you can start telling women it`s fun to be stupid." Saying that to young women, little girls, my daughter? It`s not OK. (Marie Claire - September 2005)
- Reese WitherspoonI didn`t realize until I was older what a huge music fan my daddy really was, and actually that my grandma played banjo at one time, and I didn`t even know that until a year or two ago.
- Alan JacksonGrandma cheated whenever she could. She cheated because it was a much more scientific and surer way of winning than trusting to luck.
- Allan ShermanI am really fortunate to have parents who supported my plan to become an actress when I was a little kid. And then there was my Grandma. She was the best. She was always there and ready to drive me to all my plays and stuff.
- Keiko AgenaWe need to go back to the way it was 30 years ago, when everybody had Grandma and Grandpa, and we were willing to pass moral judgments about right and wrong.
- Steven TylerThe ride`s boring, ... but it is fun because I don`t have to go to school and I get to see my grandma and grandpa and aunt and uncle.
- Doug JonesThe history of TV has traditionally been not to do anything that would scandalize Grandma or upset Junior. Our solution on The Simpsons is to do jokes that people who have an education, or some frame of reference, can get. And for the ones who don`t, it doesn`t matter, because we have Homer banging his head and saying, `D`oh!`
- Matt GroeningI`ve done them ever since I was small; my grandma taught me how.
- Mike HenryI love to surf. Every summer we go to my grandma`s house on the Jersey Shore, and I taught myself to surf there. I also play basketball, and I also play tennis, volleyball. I play the guitar and I was on the swim team, soccer, and last summer I got my junior lifeguard certification. I don`t think I do much but sports.
- Sammi Kane KraftI thought my grandma was just kidding.
- Katie Miller(To Bertha, it looked filthy and infected. She refused to go.) I was scared, ... I thought my grandma was going to die.
- Angela LindseyBefore Grandma died, she talked about family history in a way she had never done before, ... She was interested in family history, especially African American women.
- Angi BrunneyI was raised by my grandma and grandpa in Florida. My grandpa was a Primitive Baptist minister, and all of these ladies, I know. This is like coming home. It`s a joy to experience this young girl going through what she needs to go through to get to a place of comfort. To watch someone grow up and the village extend itself to her.
- Ann JacksonAt 9:30 that evening, her girls got scared and left, ... They went to stay with their grandma who`s about 30 miles inland. They begged them to come along, but they didn`t ... At 5:30 that morning, the girls were on the phone with them when the house started coming apart.
- Anthony TopaziI found out from a friend`s grandma.
