When you're producing, you're REALLY just MAKING a SERIES of DECISIONS.

My SOLE focus is producing the best TEAM POSSIBLE for England.

I wouldn't MIND producing a movie with a MUSIC storyline, but ACTING in one is too CLOSE to HOME.

It doesn't MATTER MUCH where your company sits in its industry ecosystem, nor how vertically or horizontally integrated it is - what matters is its RELATIVE 'share of CUSTOMER value' in the final PRODUCT or solution, and its cost of producing that value.

If CHINA wants to spend $10 producing a product and sell it for a buck, who benefits from that? I THINK we do. I'm the free MARKET GUY. I think free markets WORK.

In the '80s the BAND was 24/7. You were only as good as what you were producing at any given moment. Now my family is more important. I also think having the shock of your MUM and DAD DYING humbles you slightly.

I WOULD LIKE to SHIFT more into WRITING for and producing PEOPLE.

Producing in-depth, THOUGHTFUL, well-reported JOURNALISM is DIFFICULT and EXPENSIVE.

Producing a DRAMA is PARTICULARLY DIFFICULT.

One of the BIGGEST differences between you and a traditionally published author is that a self-pubbed author is responsible for everything. Not just writing the BOOK - but COVER DESIGN, editing, producing, DISTRIBUTION, and publicity as well.

I grew up at NBC and started there RIGHT out of college. I learned producing and booking. I was on MSNBC, 'Today' and 'Nightly.' I knew everyone from every level of the COMPANY. That was a comfort level. I had a PERSONAL relationship with a lot of the editorial LEADERSHIP there. It wasn't easy to LEAVE.

I've always wanted to have the ability to do what I want to do. And there are so MANY things that I want to do because I love acting, I love DIRECTING, I love producing, I love being a MOTHER, I love being a wife. If I had to choose one, just would put me in the CRAZY HOUSE.

I think Prince should OPEN up a little more to other ARTISTS. Just because we LOVE Prince. Especially the old stuff - we love him to death. But if he opened up he WOULD be something to deal with. Imagine Kanye West producing a Prince TRACK? It would be banoodles!
