I love the live performances and Las Vegas. I also like making films that are being discovered by another generation. Having been a teen idol of the '60s is great because you realize you left your generation with a smile and good memories.

Id like to be a lion... they are very family-oriented. Unfortunately. too many wild animals are afraid at what man can do to them.

Pet me, touch me, love me, that's what I get when I perform. That's when I'm really getting what I want.

I love being Italian.

Nothing you wear is more important than your smile.

My kids are pretty secure, bright, and know who they are.

I was more secure being a mother than I was walking on a set.
