I love fairytales. I like fantasy a lot, science fiction, I like magic. I like to create magic. I love magic.

I was too shy to be around real people. It wasn't like old ladies talking to plants.

Remember,the press is a business: Newspapers and magazines are in business to make money - sometimes at the expense of accuracy, fairness and even the truth.

I love Elizabeth Taylor. I'm inspired by her bravery. She has been through so much and she is a survivor. That lady has been through a lot and she's walked out of it on two feet. I identify with her very strongly because of our experiences as child stars. When we first started talking on the phone, she told me she felt as if she had known me for years. I felt the same way.

Some friends, you only see them when the sun shines.. My fans sustained me even in dark days. I owe them everything.

I am bewildered at the length to which people will go to portray me so negatively.

I love the fans and they are the reason for my professional existence. When I'm out there doing a show and I see the fans dancing and singing, that's what I love the most. It's just the greatest feeling in the world.
