This happened to me sadly, I am a male that exposed himself sadly and I was wondering if this'll stop me from achieving goals of being an actor. It was a foolish mistake and It's not like I hurt anyone, I know a lot of celebs have done things as well just would like some opinions, thank you!

Hello! What do people mean when they say an actor “loves” acting? Is it the whole process of crafting? The performing? I often struggle with enjoying the crafting component, but I do enjoy the performance aspect of it. Does that mean I do not love acting?

I've been chatting with an agent about getting signed on their books, but I'm not too sure what to do. In all honesty they aren't a great agent - they don't seem to be getting their actors much work, and what they do get seem to be glorified extra roles. Now obviously I don't sound too keen, but what's making me consid…

Willis and Ford are both known for being a bit disinterested over the last few decades. So you think they'd ever go meta? Do something really weird and give them a renewed voice?
