Zitat des Tages von Chris Tucker:
I will always do stand-up, even if my acting career takes off. Stand-up is my life.
Being a big star and being known, making movies and a lot of money - that really doesn't interest me.
I really loved what I was doing being creative and being funny as a stand-up comedian.
I travel. I do a lot of traveling around the world.
You know, we're missing so much as African-Americans and we should be concerned about what's going on in Africa.
I wanted to cut down on the profanity, because I think I'm funnier without sayin' a lot of cuss words.
I do a lot of traveling around the world.
I feel like every time I go out, I want to do a good job. I want people to say that he's just as good at stand-up as he is in some of the movies I've seen him in, so I try to do the best every time I go out there.
I've got a big closet of scripts, and a big stack of scripts on the side of my desk, because you get a whole bunch. Nothing's going to be perfect, and I realize that; but I am a perfectionist, so you go through a lot of stuff.
I love traveling. It not only opens my mind up, but it also allows me to use my fame in another way through humanitarian works and stuff, and being an influence around the world.
You don't know who you messing with man, I slap people for fun. That's what I do man! You wanna play rough, huh, I kill for fun!
I think all the knowledge and all the travels that I've done, I'm going to do a lot of great work in the future.
Georgia was a great place to live, but I wanted to get out because I knew the opportunities for what I was doing - stand-up comedy and eventually acting - were in Los Angeles.
I want to keep working, I want to keep doing my humanitarian stuff around the world, shining light on different places that have problems. Keep making movies, make people laugh.
I think my life is a movie and your life reflects your work.
Making people laugh is giving, and it's healing, too, when people can go up to the movies and forget about their problems. It's a good thing. That's why I want to work.
I think real life reflects your movies. In your life, you pick stuff that influences what movie roles you wanna pick. I think if you've got an interesting life, you wanna do interesting movies about interesting things.
When you're first starting out, you want to keep making good movies. When you're young and you're black, you do a bad movie and you're through.
You loan your friend money. You see them again, they don't say nothin' 'bout the money. 'Hi, how ya doin'? How's ya mama doing?' Man, how's my money doin'?
I tell people that stand-up's like golf: you gotta do it every day to get it down - or at least three times a week to get it down.
It takes intelligence to make real comedy, and it takes a reality base to create all that little stuff I like to do that makes you giggle inside.
I couldn't imagine not having clean water.
