you talked about this kind of paradox of being a child actor where you can only emulate feelings because you haven’t really lived any life and it takes real experience to do like great acting where have you found those like most powerful lived experiences in your life that you actually draw inspiration from i feel like as with everything it’s the most traumatic times in your life like I feel like true heartbreak for me was when you know my mom first got breast cancer when my you know when my grandfather passed away was like I was like oh this is what heartbreak really feels like when you’re inconsolable you don’t know how to look forward it’s as a kid I’m I’m a big reader i have a big imagination so you’re reading these books you’re like oh these this is how and I think that’s why I loved reading so much because you’re just like getting so many different insights on how people feel i don’t feel like I have to act anymore you know what I mean and I feel like I can draw from my own life cuz even in comedy I feel like the funniest stuff is grounded comedy comedy that comes from a real place and a lot of times comedy comes we talked to this like from trauma from dark places like people use comedy as a coping mechanism especially during the time in my life where I was working on the sweet life there was so much going on you know with my mom my family it was like such a place to where I could laugh and be silly
