For me, I never, never, from the moment I started acting, had a desire to be famous. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
I know I had my equivalents in Adrian Lester and Lenny James when I was at drama school. I remember David Harewood doing 'Othello' at the National, and Adrian Lester having done Cheek by Jowl's famous 'As You Like It and Company' at the Donmar. Not necessarily performances I saw, but just the fact they happened was massively encouraging. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
I never feel so utterly fraudulent as when I review a movie whose charms impress all in the world and I simply do not get it. The other variant is that I love something the world disdains. This has had severe career consequences: I am still famous - or notorious - in certain quarters where I am recalled as the man who liked 'Hudson Hawk.' Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
I don't ever want to be hugely famous because I had a little taste of it after 'East Is East' and 'Bend It.' Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
It's been real weird. It wasn't how I expected my life to turn out. Especially, mainly pertaining to the show. It never crossed my mind that one day I'm gonna be big and famous and have my own TV show, you know? Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
The Band was always famous for its retirements we'd go and play and get a little petty cash together, and then not see each other till it was time to fill our pockets up again. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
I'm not cut out to be a famous person I can't do my hair and makeup well enough. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
I was a shy kid, but somehow I knew I would make it as a performer. I'd always be telling my mum that I was going to be a famous singer. In my school yearbooks I would write, 'Remember me when I'm famous.' I knew I had a gift. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
And I want to be able to - you know, make Republicans and Democrats famous for keeping jobs in California. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
It's very difficult today for girls to become supermodels. There is a lot more competition, a lot of countries in the East have opened up so there are many more models than there were in the Nineties. Now they have to compete with famous actresses but also with, say, reality stars to be on the magazine covers. Jul 09, 2024 - Fabian Biese>
