When I decided to launch my first knitwear line it was because I saw a void in the basics category. The editors were always looking for cool fashion-forward tees and sweaters. So that's where I started.

But being on location and shooting whether its in Puerto Rico or Atlanta it always reminds me of how really cool my job can be. Interacting with the fans is one of the best parts of it.

My sister has three kids so I've spent a lot of time around children and I've always really liked them and wanted my own. It's cool because you think all babies are the same but they aren't at all. They all have such different personalities. It's crazy.

When I was younger the pressure was just being cool. I never thought of myself as a cool guy. I always thought of myself as more of the goofy guy.

I thought Daredevil was kind of cool because he couldn't do anything. I mean he's blind. It wasn't that he could fly. His major power was an impediment. So I was intrigued. When I took over he was kind of like Spider-Man-lite but I was able to project a lot of my Catholic imagery onto it. And I'd always wanted to do a crime comic.

I'm a fan of designers and clothes that look beautiful but more importantly make me feel beautiful and confident. It's why I've always loved Stella McCartney and more recently Prabal Gurung. Their pieces are cool yet timeless and the fits are effortlessly flattering.

Having been to Europe and working and traveling there the restaurants my wife and I remember were always off the beaten trail restaurants. So I tried to seek a little 'off the beaten trail ' but cool area.

It's always cool to meet people who can do things that you have no capacity to do.

That's the hardest thing about being a mom. You want to be cool and you want them to like you all the time but you can't always have that. You're gonna have times where you have to say no and you won't be the most popular person in the house.

I think my printing to this day looks like the printing right out of a comic book. Actually I always wanted to be in a comic book. I watched cartoons when I was a kid too and both comics and cartoons lit fire in my imagination. This realm holds a lot of interest for me a lot of passion for me. So to be comic-ized yeah that's cool.

It's healthy to have older friends. You go 'Look I'm younger than them!' That's always the nice thing if you can be the youngest one in the room at times. Like if you're always the oldest one in the room you'll start to feel like the oldest person in the world. So get older friends because they're cool. Get cool older friends.

I always hated high-school shows and high-school movies because they were always about the cool kids. It was always about dating and sex and all the popular kids and the good-looking kids. And the nerds were super-nerdy cartoons with tape on their glasses. I never saw 'my people' portrayed accurately.

Personally I was never the cool kid. I was always sort of a bookworm.

Personally I was never the cool kid. I was always sort of a bookworm. I would just like to be more like Troy because he's so cool.

It's cool to have parents and family who will always tell me the truth no matter what. They'll tell me if I'm doing something stupid!

If I wasn't even famous or had any success I would still wake up and put tons of make-up on and put on a cool outfit. That's always been who I've been my whole life so that's never gonna change. I love fashion. I love getting dressed up. I love Halloween too.

I've always been scared of advertising folk. I've met them at parties and I've been to their offices and I've always found them intimidatingly cool. At one company I visited they held their meetings in a caravan that had somehow been installed in the place a rather more exotic place to gather than the typical BBC glass box.

What is more important than the name is that people know that I really like acting I enjoy it and I want people to know that I am serious. The name thing: I will always be L.L. Cool J.

My parents used to throw great New Year's Eve parties. They invited such an eclectic mix of showbiz people. All those cool people were always hanging out at our apartment.

Acknowledging class was always difficult for 'New Democrats' - it was second-wave it was divisive - but 2008 made retro politics cool again.

The funny thing is the girls that I'm always up against for roles are pretty nice and cool like Emma Watson. She's awesome.

My friends are people who like building cool stuff. We always have this joke about people who want to just start companies without making something valuable. There's a lot of that in Silicon Valley.

I think it's so cool to be tall. Even when I'm not wearing heels people tell me I'm tall and I always take it as a complement. The good thing is I can always see everybody in the room.

I'm a video game fan and I always thought it would be cool to be able to control a character.
