Rock rejects traditional Hollywood success

The comedian stated that most people do not achieve fame in the entertainment business. He told reporters that having a daughter with great kids represents his current definition of making it.

Infidelity is part of life

Rock explained that his character and Rosalind Eleazar bond over their inability to stay faithful in relationships. He insisted that infidelity is not unique to show business but is simply a reality of everyday life.

Love defines real success

The actor argued that lacking love makes a person broke regardless of their financial wealth. He described the pursuit of fame as just a job at the end of the day.
