It's funny because a lot of people that know me as a dancer, don't know that I'm a singer, and a lot of people that know I can sing don't know I can dance. And so, I feel like at some point I have to show them both and really be able to display it and showcase it, and put that out there. ↗

I'm glad I was born when I was. My time was the golden age of variety. If I were starting out again now, maybe things would happen for me, but it certainly would not be on a variety show with 28 musicians, 12 dancers, two major guest stars, 50 costumes a week by Bob Mackie. The networks just wouldn't spend the money today. ↗

Dancers are stripped enough onstage. You don't have to know more about them than they've given you already. ↗

Obviously, the young dancers lack a certain air of maturity. ↗

Independent dance - and, fine, it's a very good thing that it remains independent - is a much tougher life: all dancers expect that, and accept that there will be periods of not being able to work, provided there are choice moments during the year when they really can work. ↗

One of our problems is our sense of discipline - dancers have an extraordinary sense of self-discipline. ↗

If a ballet dancer falls over, it's knowing how to get out looking clumsy that counts. ↗
