Ja Rule (29 February 1976, Hollis, Queens, New York City, New York, USA) movies list and roles

I've done a lot of films that all have been pretty edgy.

Be very nervous of the shaky hands.

As far as rap goes, I grew up in Hollis, Queens, so early influences were people like Run DMC and LL Cool J.

A lot of people say I tried to emulate Tupac, but when I look back at my career, we're very different artists. I took pages out of Pac's book, of course, and lots of other rappers - Biggie, Nas - of course you take pages out of those books, but you eventually make it your own thing. And I think I did a good job of that. Show less «

As far as religion goes, I feel like everyone should have their own one-on-one with God.

That is our first amendment, freedom of speech. But I also believe that we have an obligation to the youth to be somewhat responsible in what we say on records. But I think that comes with age. I think that comes with artists growing up and becoming assured of who they are as people. Show less «

I believe in God and not religion, because I believe religion is the double cross. Because I've been double crossed by three religions, so I think I can safely say that religion - there is maybe something wrong with religion. Every temple that's put up may not be a holy one, so watch out. Show less «

I stopped going to Kingdom Hall, the church, when I was 11 years old, so I was very young. They don't celebrate birthdays, you get no Christmas, so it's a very difficult religion for children to get into. And they do a lot of finger-pointing among the Jehovah's Witnesses. Show less «

People think being famous is so glamorous, but half the time you're in a strange hotel room living out of a suitcase.

I love to see my family together. That's what life is about. It's about family.

I get mad quick and and go off at the handle quick.

I don't want people to get confused. I'm not going to be putting out a gospel album.

Every religion there's something foul going on.

I got a cold feeling toward religion in general. I don't think God would want to separate families.

Galley Molina's a great inspiration and role model for a lot of young kids out there.

I love music; it's my passion.

I went through a lot of phases and studied many religions. I am not into religion, I am spiritual.

I would love to do something like 'Beverly Hills Cop'. I'd get to be funny and cool and heroic all in the same breath.

I got started in 1995, working in a group called The Cash Money Click.

I just like music that I can relate to, something to listen to in my car.

It's always good to be working.

Jail is definitely not cool. Education is.

My role now is as an artist and as a mogul to inspire and give others opportunities.

Music is my heart, but I see television and more movies in the next stage of my life.

I'm married, I have three children, I never hit my wife.

These companies are in it for their dollars, and whatever is hot that is what they follow.

The public makes it so that we have to keep assaulting each other.

There is only one me.

Acting was something I always wanted to try. I just didn't know how, or I didn't know when the door was gonna be open for me to try it. But it finally opened up for me when I did 'Turn It Up', and ever since then I've been in love with doing films. Show less «

My family was Jehovah's Witnesses, which is a really tough religion. It kind of deterred me from religion for a long time. They still practice, but I don't. But I always remained spiritual, and had a belief that there is a God. I'm trying to find my way, you know? Show less «
