I don't see my dancing or acting as two separate things. I don't define them separately, so I can't say one has helped the other, It's all the same thing. More than anything I love being on stage and performing

The first Broadway show I saw was when I was 11. I saw 'Hair.

The musical stuff I'd go up for was always funny, sexy, tough-as-nails, heart-of-gold characters.

I'm not a performer who will come on stage and tell you everything about my life. It's just not who I am.

I know when I'm bad, I know when I'm good, and I know when I'm everything in between. I don't have any delusions of grandeur or delusions of failure. In terms of my work, I've got a pretty cold honest eye.

Creating a role is an interesting thing - each show or each situation is different.

Kirstie [Alley] saved me, in a way. [At the time], I had a terrible marriage, and I stayed at her house. She was wonderful - just a kind, big-hearted, filthy girl. Somehow she could be vulgar without being vulgar.
