There's nothing a man can do, that I can't do better and in heels

My mother told me I was dancing before I was born. She could feel my toes tapping wildly inside her for months.

My mother was a journalist, so writing is not unnatural to me.

'Flying Down to Rio' established RKO as a leader in musical film production throughout the 1930s. The film helped to rescue the studio from its financial straits and it gave a real boost to my movie career.

While I was making my solo films, RKO was busily trying to get me and Fred Astaire back together. The studio wanted to capitalize on the success of 'Flying Down to Rio' and realized that the pairing of Rogers and Astaire had moneymaking potential.

I did everything he did but backwards & in high heels.

People are still people no matter how you cut it.
