I know I can beat everyone that defeated me.

I think I'm pretty confident, and I know I'm different than everyone else, so I'm going to do what's me.

I want everyone to recognize and know me. I don't want bodyguards. I want to be able to go out into the masses.

Well, once I did 'Grease,' everyone was offering me studio pictures in a similar vein - you know, popcorn movie.

I'm realizing I need to be in close proximity to everyone I'm working with because that - I don't know - it keeps me engaged.

If you don't watch 'The Young Turks,' you don't know me at all. Whereas no one watches Anderson Cooper, but everyone knows him.

I've had Botox, but then again pretty much everyone I know has. To me, Botox is no more unusual than toothpaste. It works. You do it once a year - who cares?

What is Twitter?! I don't know what Twitter is! Everyone keeps inviting me to Twitter and everyone's going on about twittering and tweeting and this whole thing, and I just don't understand it.

I grew up watching Gregory Hines banging out rhythms like drum beats, and Jimmy Slyde dancing these melodies, you know, bop-bah-be-do-bap, not just tap-tap-tap. Everyone else was dancing in monotone, but I could hear the hoofers in stereo, and they influenced me to have this musical approach towards tap.

I had a growing career as a model and an actress in London - I had starred opposite Michael Caine and Sidney Poitier in 'The Wilby Conspiracy' - but everyone told me to stay in Hollywood. This was the place, they said, and I could have a big career. What they failed to mention was that no one would quite know what to do with me.
