“The musical stuff I’d go up for was always funny, sexy, tough-as-nails, heart-of-gold characters.”

I have the greatest picture of Ted [Danson]. That was a big caper,

I really loved Kelsey [Grammer]. It wasn’t a romantic love, but there was something about him. It’s very difficult to see someone you care about having a hard time.

On the rare occasions I go to the gym, I prefer silence.

When I was born, they put casts on my legs ’cause I had some kind of dysplasia or something. My legs were all messed up.

I don’t see myself as a diva at all.

I don’t see my dancing or acting as two separate things. I don’t define them separately, so I can’t say one has helped the other, It’s all the same thing.

More than anything I love being on stage and performing

I’ve never danced professionally as a ballet dancer, but all of my training is ballet, and I am a Fosse dancer.

Creating a role is an interesting thing – each show or each situation is different.

Artists need to express.

I am a very complicated person.

I think that applies to their chosen profession, friends and relationships. It goes for your health too. If you are true to yourself, it seems to me everything should work out pretty well

I can act. I can sing. But I am a dancer

She was wonderful – just a kind, big-hearted, filthy girl. Somehow she could be vulgar without being vulgar.

The first Broadway show I saw was when I was 11. I saw ‘Hair.

In New York I was always offered the hot, sexy roles. But in L.A. I was offered the plain, dowdy roles. It says a lot about the difference between the coasts

I would rather call a girl beautiful or pretty; rather than hot or sexy.

I’m at the point in my life where I feel that silence is sexy.

Confidence, the sexiest thing I put on in the morning.

Being sexy without being gross is far more than a make up and the pose

Confidence is the best thing a woman can have. It’s much sexier than any body part.

I think it’s so much sexier to be understated. It’s more intriguing to be sexy in a less obvious way.

If you sexy and you know it and you ain’t afraid to show it.

I had nothing growing up, but I always wanted to be ‘sexy,’ even before I knew what the word was.
