Performers love to perform - that's the thing that we do. I think one of the best things was being able to imagine anything that I wanted, anything that I came up with we could do, because this theater is unbelievable.

Words are like weapons; they wound sometimes.

I've been screaming at the top of my lungs at my family, 'Work out! Work out! Old age is coming!'

Some years I'm the coolest thing that ever happened, and then the next year everyone's so over me, and I'm just so past my sell date.

Elvis was the first person in music that I really identified with.

My mother was the most creative, fantastic person and would come up with great things for us to do. She'd buy art supplies and all of us would sit around painting. I was lucky.

I really don't think of myself as a singer. I think of myself as an entertainer, and the best place I do it is onstage.
