It's hard to feel like a teen idol.

I was a teen idol in Latin America.

All that stuff - 'teen idol' - that wasn't me.

I was a teen idol and that has a short shelf life.

I became a teen idol. At the time, it embarrassed me.

Being a teen idol is what I've waited for my whole life.

Frank Sinatra is the only one that went from teen idol to superstar.

I think anybody who's doing work in their teen years on TV or in the movies, you're a teen idol by default.

I don't think there's a problem with being a teen idol, if that happens to me, I'll be happy to deal with it.

I found my niche as a character actor, and I've never felt like a movie star or teen idol and never wanted to.

They were marketing me as a teen idol, when the stuff on the record was not what teen idols were doing at the time.

I didn't want to be the typical teen idol. I didn't want to be Leif Garrett. I didn't want to be Shaun Cassidy, David Cassidy or Parker Stevenson. I wanted to do my own thing.

Being a teen idol or being a heartthrob on all the magazines, with Shaun Cassidy, Leif Garrett, and Scott Baio - it was embarrassing! I never understood it. I mean, why me? I never really got it.

I love the live performances and Las Vegas. I also like making films that are being discovered by another generation. Having been a teen idol of the '60s is great because you realize you left your generation with a smile and good memories.
