I’d love to be something in the crew.’” “But, I wouldn’t want fame for my kid,” he continued. “Film sets are wonderful places. I think a lot of the time it can be wonderful for kids. But it’s really the fame side of it that should be avoided at all costs.” Related: Hold onto your glass slippers, because Brandy is reprising her Cinderella role!
