When I was growing up watching Marilyn Monroe, I learned that you can be very beautiful, very glamorous and very vulnerable and not give up your soul just because you were a movie star.

In the case of Marilyn and John Kennedy, I think they did affect change.

My attitude is always one of sensuality, aggressive enthusiasm and a kind of outrageousness in my expression.

A lot of my joy this year has been to give away awards to young people, no matter of race, creed or color, because they were a terrific violinist or a terrific dancer.

I have some great stories and I will get around to writing a book.

Our church has been legal since late 1960s. I've been involved since 1972. I was ordained in 1975.

So I have this ability, if I may say so, to spot talent.
