If you put your ears down and react to what they say, you won’t live, especially when you are in the limelight. “You have to realize that your life is now entertainment for people. I don’t care about what people think.

If your self-esteem is based on how much is in your bank account then you have a very serious self-esteem issue. So my mind, myself-worth has nothing to do with my account. I have had experiences of ups and downs so if my self-worth was based on material things I would have killed my self”he said
