I had a wonderful childhood, coming from Cincinnati, and I think that it was great going into the life that I was going to have, where you have to start young as a dancer. ↗

I liked to read but, being a dancer, I didn't have a lot of time to read. ↗

I'm thought of as a cool, unemotional dancer, but inside I'm not. ↗

Everything that could produce a clash between the Arab world and the West seemed dangerous to me. ↗

Once I started dancing, I was not the spoiled brat or the rebellious child that I was as a child. ↗

That the work involved, the willingness to take chances, the commitment, the opportunity to get on stage and make people happy, was more important than becoming famous, or even what I was dancing. ↗

So dancing was not something I had a great desire to do. ↗

The particular ballet was not so important as the fact that I was physically healthy, and capable of getting out there and dancing as often as possible. ↗

I'm glad I was born when I was. My time was the golden age of variety. If I were starting out again now, maybe things would happen for me, but it certainly would not be on a variety show with 28 musicians, 12 dancers, two major guest stars, 50 costumes a week by Bob Mackie. The networks just wouldn't spend the money today. ↗

I play the guitar. This year at the Sundance film festival, I joined the band from 'The Guitar' on stage. We warmed up for Patti Smith, and then the director Michel Gondry got on the drums to play some songs from the soundtrack to his film Be Kind Rewind with Mos Def. It was pretty mad. ↗
