It wasn't until I went to college that I met the theatre people and began to admire them because they were learning a trade that was guaranteed to make money!

Physical activity can get you going when you are immobilized. Get action in your life, and don't just talk about it. Get into the arena!

Singing well has always been important to me, but the most important factor is the connection to the audience.

My approach is so simple; every song I sing, every story I tell, every move I make, must move the audience to laughter, tears, or inspiration. Otherwise, why do it? It's the communication.
