well. maybe you want to know a little about me? first off, i HATE work. whoever said sitting in a studio recording lines over and over and over again because the stupid camera guy messed up the boom microphone as fun was completely out of their mind. these gys don't know shit! you tell them to do something and it takes a million years for them to process what you said, and then actually DO the damn job. people need to realize that when i want something i get it that instant. i will stop all filming if i am thirsty, hungry, or bored. they better cater to my wishes or i'll just walk out and their movie will never get finished. likewise, a director needs to make the job fun and interesting if i am going to stick with the project. money doesn't matter too much--i have plenty. another thing i really don't like are the fans. they are SOOOO annoying! i don't know why they market me to the tweens, especially now that i am getting into much more serious material (musical high school is a total step back, but it's a favor for a friend). i do not appreciate the grabbing and the marriage proposals and the obsession with me. i'm just a guy. just riley. i hate having to hide when i go out into public and i hate that i actually NEED body guards or else they may strip me naked and rape me. i wanted to do this for fun, but now it's a battle for survival and privacy every single day. i use threats and vulgarity to get my way, because i have resources if someone screws me over. no one would dare mess with me because they are afraid of losing their jobs. oh, and i forgot to mention i refuse to sign autographs.
