Who would voice Sonny in a movie?
Michael B. Jordan. Steady dude, calm. He would do a good job.
Describe the voice you use to talk to Sonny.
Baby voice. Gets the tail wagging; he’ll walk over. He understands when it’s a soft little voice like that.
What is Sonny’s weirdest nickname, and how did you come up with it?
I think I call him like, Son-Son, or say like, Don-Don. [Editor’s note: Pronounced “dun-dun.”] Just being goofy and baby.
Where is one place you wish you could take Sonny?
To an NBA game, a Knicks game. Or a baseball game. Baseball game, because I’ll be able to be with him. NBA game, I’ll be on the court. I’ll say baseball game. Phillies vs. Yankees.
Where is the strangest place you’ve taken Sonny?
I don’t even go nowhere that’s strange, honestly. The craziest, I think… I took him on a private jet before. That was funny. He was fine. He was cool. He was just trying to lay up there with the pilots. He just chilled up there with them, he trusted them, like, ‘Please get me home safe.’
