We have always been dreamers, and we are admittedly overachievers, and coming out of high school, we didn't want to be struggling artists.

We started out as actors. When we were coming out of high school, we didn't want to be struggling actors, and - I remember the conversation - we were like, 'Let's invest in real estate!'

Growing up, we were in a strict household, so we weren't allowed to have posters of our crushes and stuff on the wall - mine was Cristina Applegate.

We went into that knowing that we were never going to sell a major record 'cause we didn't sound like these bands, so I just thought this was an opportunity for us to make the kind of records that we wanted and make some money at the same time.

There are films that cost a lot of money that might be decent films. But if they don't perform in that first weekend or two, they're gone.

Handbags, dude. It's all about the handbags. I have quite a few purses that I spend a good deal of money on - that's my jam.
