3 December 2020 Paul Thomas Anderson My dad was this sort of avant-garde guy who did all kinds of weird things. He was a true original and anybody who met him never forgot him.
3 December 2020 Nicole Scherzinger I’m going to take care of the man I’m with. I grew up in a household where my mum takes care of my dad – she cooks, she does everything – and that’s the kind of girl I am.
3 December 2020 Jamie Redknapp My dad knows the business, and he tells me I’ve got to do what’s best for me.
3 December 2020 Lou Brock When I was a kid, I used to imagine animals running under my bed. I told my dad, and he solved the problem quickly. He cut the legs off the bed.
3 December 2020 Eddie Vedder I think the hardest thing about making music now is being a great dad at the same time. There’s an insanity that goes with writing – a mad scientist thing that you have to go through – and sacrificing a kid’s upbringing to do that is not an option.
3 December 2020 Prince Charles Father told me that if I ever met a lady in a dress like yours, I must look her straight in the eyes.
3 December 2020 Hunter Parrish My mom grew up in Kansas, my dad in Indiana. They had boring childhoods.
3 December 2020 Brendan Fehr When you get pure joy out of ‘being’ rather than ‘doing’ or ‘seeing,’ that’s when you realize how big and unexplainable some things are and being a dad is one of those very few things.
3 December 2020 Luke Bryan My dad is very successful in his business. He’s always been big in having hobbies and having little ways to get away. He always made time for hunting and fishing. He always encouraged me to do it.
3 December 2020 Joe Wright I couldn’t be a cameraman or a designer or an actor – I have to be a director because I learned how to do that from my dad.
3 December 2020 Tim Vine Apparently, one in five people in the world are Chinese. And there are five people in my family, so it must be one of them. It’s either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother, Colin. Or my younger brother, Ho-Chan-Chu. But I think it’s Colin.
3 December 2020 Yancy Butler I grew up in Greenwich Village. Dad was friends with John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
3 December 2020 Gerry Cooney I grew up in a big Irish, Catholic family. My dad was a pretty rough guy. So one of my brothers left home when he was 15 and found his way to the gym. It gave me the opportunity to go and spend some time with him and work out in the gym.
3 December 2020 Juliana Hatfield My dad was depressed a lot of the time, and there were a lot of things in his life that he never resolved.
3 December 2020 George Best The best thing about being a dad? Well, I think it’s just the thing that every man wants – to have a son and heir.
3 December 2020 Rod Stewart I can definitely say the older I’ve got the better I’ve become at being a dad and a husband.
3 December 2020 Hugh Jackman I’ve never heard my dad say a bad word about anybody. He always keeps his emotions in check and is a true gentleman. I was taught that losing it was indulgent, a selfish act.
3 December 2020 Ryan Lochte My senior year of high school, when I was getting recruited for college, my dad goes to me, ‘You can become an Olympic champion.’ And that’s the first time that I’d heard someone else say that to me. I was like, ‘Uh, are you talking to me?’
3 December 2020 Colin Hanks When I was younger it was – you know, my dad dressed up in drag on ‘Bosom Buddies.’ And that was what I was having to deal with at the time. And then around the time that I was into college was when he became statue-worthy I guess you could say.
3 December 2020 Seann William Scott My dad was diagnosed with cancer, so we ended up burying him a year to the day that he was diagnosed.
3 December 2020 Miley Cyrus My dad says I could sing before I could talk, if that’s possible. I was always humming and things like that.
3 December 2020 Eva Green I’m worried because of my mother, she’s going to see my performance and she’s quite hard. She’s going to see me naked. And my Dad, woah. Yeah, they’re going to see me like a woman, you know?
3 December 2020 Beth Ditto My dad liked to boil a squirrel head and suck the brains out the nose. Smaller than a chicken, bigger than a rat.
3 December 2020 Amy Heckerling Babies don’t need fathers, but mothers do. Someone who is taking care of a baby needs to be taken care of.
