I used to be a Democrat, now I'm basically a Republican.

I have no connection with Hollywood. I'm not interested. I don't care.

I think people have a strong desire to push me and others into some sort of political box that they can wrap their minds around.

I saw a commercial for the maxi pads for the bigger gals they're making now. That was a nice visual while I was eating.

If you are tuning in just for the show, you're going to be sorely disappointed.

This is why the terrorists hate us. And it's not the glitter and it's not the pomp and circumstance. We've got black and white, we've got Hispanic and Asian, we got gay, straight, and Guttenberg, all working together for one common goal: to get the mirror ball. And the mirror ball doesn't care what color you are, and it doesn't care how rich your parents are, and it doesn't care what God you pray to. It's an even wooden floor, and may the best man or woman win. And I say God bless Dancing with the Stars, and God bless the USA.

People have to be realistic, or the dream just drags on.
