Brothers say acting and singing are equally enjoyable

Recently, the kid reporters at Newsday spoke with brothers Alex and Nat Wolff, who star in Nickelodeon's The Naked Brothers Band. Here is their interview: Q: How old were you when you first performed in front of a live audience, and where was it? Nat: At my (family's) apartment in New York. I was about 5. I played with a bunch of friends, and Alex sat in for one song. I just wanted to do a concert, so we invited all my parents' friends, all my friends, like the whole class. Q: Which do you prefer: playing in a band or acting on TV? Nat: I can't choose, I go back and forth. Usually I would say performing in a band, but, especially when I'm on the show, it's so cool to do the acting. Alex: I think performing in a band, but just like (Nat), sometimes I just want to act. Q: Nat, do you like Rosalina on the show (played by Allie DiMeco) in real life? Nat: Next question! Q: Who would you like to guest-star on your show? Nat: I'd like Paul McCartney more than anyone. That would be so cool. Alex: I'd like David Bowie, Ashton Kutcher or Jim Sturgess (who played Jude) from Across the Universe (a 2007 movie based on Beatles' songs). Q: What is your favorite song on your CD (The Naked Brothers Band) and why? Alex: I really can't pick a favorite, but there are two that I wrote, I Could Be and Alien Clones. Q: What music do you like? Do you have a favorite album? Nat: I'm a huge Beatles fan. I love Sting, Elton John. My favorite album is Rubber Soul (by the Beatles). Alex: I love Green Day, the Beatles, Bob Marley, David Bowie. Right now, my favorite album is (the Beatles') Magical Mystery Tour. Q: What is your favorite school subject? Alex: Recess! Nat: I like English, I like writing. Q: Now that you're famous, do you ever want to trade places with regular kids like us for a day, or do you like your life the way it is? Nat: I think being famous is kind of like being a regular kid, except everybody knows who you are, and everybody gets to hear my music now, which is really good.
