That was the aura of Cheers: It was special. It was more than TV; you could get people to guest on the show you couldn't normally get.

I've been on stage since I was 7. That's where I'd rather be than anywhere else. Just because you can do a bunch of things doesn't mean you are a bunch of things. I can act. I can sing. But I am a dancer

My audition song is, and has been since 1977, 'I Love a Piano.

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

I have the greatest picture of Ted [Danson]. That was a big caper: There was one person [opening] the door with a butter knife and another person kicking the door in so I could get a photo. He's decapitated, but totally nude. And he's really well-endowed.

Certainly the life of a dancer is very difficult. The training is very hard and relentlessly grueling.

I've been very fortunate in my collaborators throughout my career.
