Here is a recent press release from the Associated Press with some great quotes from Asher:
Asher Book has revealed how grateful he is to be working in showbiz.
The 21-year-old, who plays aspiring singer Marco in the new Fame movie, is aware of showbiz being a fickle industry but said he’d never take fame for granted.”I think you lose grasp of what fame really is because I think you feel much more gratitude and it’s a more humbling experience when you finally achieve it after years of working at it and getting to that point,“ he said.
“Why have we been in this business since five, six years old? It’s what we love to do, so getting to a point where we get to do this, to do interviews and flying to different countries and do crazy stuff, yes it’s hard work but it’s so enjoyable because we can say, ‘Wow, look how far we’ve come.’ You know?”
Asher has experienced how tough the business can be – he was rejected for the role in the Fame remake, before he was hired again.
“Yeah, I was more or less fighting for this role for about six months,” he said.
“At one point I was told I hadn’t got in, so I was pretty much heartbroken at that point. You just have to go all out with all your heart because you never know [what's going to happen]. Everything can turn around, so you just have to have faith.”
