I just chased bands all over the country. The biggest one I saw was Jimi Hendrix.

I was probably about 13 or 14, and I went by myself to the City Auditorium in Colorado Springs and saw the guy who wrote and sang "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polkadot Bikini." Brian something. And I got to meet him and he signed an autograph for me, a little piece of paper. Brian Hyland! It was so bizarre.

People think, "Oh my god, you've been doing this job for so many years, it must get boring." It's like, "No, hell no," because I get to sing, I get to dance, I get to be on TV and in films, I get to do merchandising, licensing, show up at conventions, write, or take photographs for my book. There are so many different things going on for me that it never gets boring. It's always fun and interesting.

I knew I would grow up and wear a costume one day, and that's exactly what happened.

I do not remember the '70s, for who-knows-what-all reasons.

I hate to sound cliché, but it would probably be the day my daughter was born. That was a pretty amazing experience.
