Delta Burke

For a while I was living in New Orleans for like 4, 5 years. I had just come back to town.

I loved living in London, and I didn't want to leave.

I love comedy, so you want to make them happy, make them laugh.

I'll do humor about myself, I'll poke fun and everything, but that's me and I can do it to me. I think it's cruel to do it to somebody else.

For me, it's like biking around the neighborhood, the walks and stuff, because I have never enjoyed the gym. Or I'll do, since I used to dance a lot, all the old dance exercises.

I went through all my twenties thinking that I wasn't good enough.

Blanche talks about aging, and why should she be considered poor, because physical beauty is transitory and fading and she has such richness of the soul. I think that speech is so beautiful, and so telling and so true.

I loved getting to do Promised Land with him. I mean, he's really there for you. We did one very emotional scene in the church. He's just a wonderful acting partner. You feel very safe with him.

I wish I could blame it on the choreography, but it's not a musical. I just had a clumsy moment.

One time we did have 300 acres in watermelons. That was fun.

And we live in a French Quarter a lot of the time, in New Orleans. And the camaraderie of everybody there. Everybody takes care of each other.

Film people are coming into TV, because they can't get any work.
