I dated a girl for a while, she was very short and thin and as you know, I'm a huge big guy. We had to walk next to each other when we were walking down the street because if she walked in front of me, it looked like I was hunting her. Show less «

I am proud to announce I have started a new company that is the most exciting thing I've ever worked on. Most people don't know, but when I'm not shooting Big Time Rush, I am producing movies. In the past few years I have produced a pilot called "Small Business" for Comedy Central Digital, I was a producer on the Twilight spoof movie "Breaking Wind" for Lionsgate, and most recently I produced "30 Nights of Paranormal Activity with the Devil Inside the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" which got distribution by 20th Century Fox. While making these films I have always run into the same problem when it comes to hiring animals. It's incredibly costly on a small budget to afford to have a dog on set, let alone a zebra. That is why I started Independent Film Animals. This company will help directors and producers get the vision that have worked so hard to achieve without going bankrupt. Our company will provide a wide range of animals for new projects. Whether you need Camels to ride in the desert, Otters to swim in your pool, Pigs to ride in your car or a Kangaroo to sit at your desk, I.F.A. will make your dreams a reality. Show less «

When I first started on the show (Big Time Rush) all my jewelry was fake. Then one day this lady comes to set and shows me the new stuff I will be wearing. I asked if I could take some necklace home because I liked it. She said I couldn't because it costs $150,000. I was like what make you think I won't rob you!!!! Ha ha. Show less «

I really love Gustavo Rocque's clothes. I have always been a huge fan of hip hop clothing and am always checking out brands like Trap House, Diamond, Pink Dolphin to see what they got going on. But during the first season one of my biggest dreams came true when I got Sponsored by LRG because Gustavo wears LRG. I've been sponsored by LRG now for almost four years and they keep me looking fresh on all the big red carpets. That's pretty sick! Also most of the hoodies I wear on the show were hand made one of a kinds just for me by the same people that make Lady Gaga's costumes. Show less «
