“The only time that I am really truly happy - when I feel at my best - is when I'm on the stage.”

“I was a sloppy kid, wanted to be just wild.”

“What happens is, when I perform, I'm somewhere else. I go back in time and get in touch with who I really am. I forget my troubles, my worries.”

“I am hopeful that one day I will meet that right man and will have a very happy life partner.”

“I'm never happy with my performances. I always want to prove more and more things.”

“He looks about as happy as a penguin in a microwave.”
