If you do a musical, it's really thrilling and it's a lot of work, but it's very rewarding. I would say, for me, what I like best is what I do, which is, I call it vaudeville, I call it live, I call it in concert, I call it what Bette Midler does, and what Garland did for years, and Ethel Merman.

Marilyn Monroe was a very sweet girl, she was a very innocent girl.

I think men like the boobie shows. Vegas will always be Vegas.

Gene Kelly was a great dancer and I was lucky to be in 'Singin' in the Rain.' He was my teacher when I was 17 years old, when he was 37 years old. He taught me everything.

Every secret gets known to the world.

I'll be like Irving Berlin: "There's no business like show business."

[Las Vegas in the early 1960] was thrilling, exciting... I would describe it as very Parisian.
