3 December 2020 Paul McCartney I’m a pretty hands-on dad and make the most of my custody. I take care of my little one whenever I can, and she determines what I can do and where I can do it.
3 December 2020 Heather Morris My dad passed away before my freshman year, and it altered how I thought. I was depressed – I didn’t hang out with my friends. I worked through it by dancing.
3 December 2020 Danny Boyle My dad was a labourer and my mum had exactly the same job as Noel Gallagher’s mum – she was a dinner lady at our local school. Everyone comes over from Ireland and they get the same jobs.
3 December 2020 Jenna Ushkowitz When I was on Broadway when I was little, I remember always driving through Times Square with my dad to the theater. Now when I go back, you can’t even drive on Broadway in the 40s. New Times Square is too touristy to me.
3 December 2020 Lily Allen But Dad and I are the only father-and-daughter acts who have both had No. 1 songs in England.
3 December 2020 Jenny Eclair I’ve just got crap hair. Although I inherited a lot of stuff from my dad, including giant knees, I didn’t get his good, thick hair. I got my mother’s thin, wispy, non-event hair instead.
3 December 2020 Amy Klobuchar My dad was a sports writer when I was younger and then he became just a general columnist. But I grew up with him literally getting into brawls with football coaches.
3 December 2020 Robert Griffin III One thing my dad always told me, was he would make sure I always had what he didn’t have. He couldn’t play basketball because he didn’t have tennis shoes – so I had five pairs of tennis shoes.
3 December 2020 John Boehner My dad and my uncles owned a bar outside of Cincinnati. I worked there growing up, mopping floors, waiting tables.
3 December 2020 Dean Norris My dad’s era believed that there was something noble in being a good guy – the kind of guy that lived straight and narrow, told the truth, and stood up for what he believed was right.
3 December 2020 Danny Bonaduce As it has been told to me, my Dad had some kind of deal with Dick Clark. But when we got here, that fell through. So we were out here with no job, no furniture, no food.
3 December 2020 Curtis Stone I had the opportunity to go to law school, and my dad, who was an accountant, couldn’t believe I wanted to walk away from that and start cooking.
3 December 2020 Miranda Kerr I got stuck up a tree when I was about seven, and my dad had to come and get the ladder to get me down. I loved to climb all the way up to the top. I must have been a koala in my past life.
3 December 2020 Sherri Shepherd My dad worked two jobs and moved us to the suburbs, and just being a black person, I went through a lot of racism and being called names and being bullied every single day. And it was hard. I didn’t have any friends.
3 December 2020 Zach Galifianakis My dad doesn’t get any of my jokes. He laughs at them, but he doesn’t understand them. He’s just laughing because people around him are laughing.
3 December 2020 Jessica Pare I didn’t want to have braces when I was a kid and I’m pretty sure my dad didn’t want to pay for them.
3 December 2020 Anna Lee My father was an Episcopalian minister, and I’ve always been comforted by the power of prayer.
3 December 2020 Eddie Murray No one was more important than my mom and dad. I know they are watching from a place up in heaven here today to make sure all their kids are doing good.
3 December 2020 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar My grandfather and my uncle both died from colorectal cancer, my dad almost died from it and I have the gene for it.
3 December 2020 Rory McIlroy My dad’s a scratch golfer and I’ve got the knack of seeing something and then replicating it. I saw my dad swing a club and I worked out how to do the same thing. My backswing and follow-through have been basically the same since I was two.
3 December 2020 Christine Keeler As a little girl I used to daydream about my real father coming on a white horse to rescue me.
3 December 2020 Alison Lohman My dad’s an architect and my mom owned a French bakery for twelve years.
