“I was a street dancer.”

I never identified with anybody. I have always been very sensitive about my color, because everybody called me ‘yellow gal.’ I was caught in between both sides – nobody wanted me. I love that my audience is there, but I always feel as though I have to fend for myself.

I stayed on my own path and did not follow the herd. I made a way for myself.

I don’t think I ever really got interested in theater.

This is where you see the truth of entertainment, because it is not edited. You see it on stage as it is happening. Even if we fall down or forget our words, it’s a part of live entertainment.

You don’t have to hit anybody on the head to be sexy.

I don’t wear my political feelings on my sleeve. However, if I’m asked, I will answer honestly.

I never take anything for granted. I may slip any minute.

I love men and I like to get their attention.

I am learning all the time. The tombstone will be my diploma.

I’ve always been multi-cultural myself. I’m not black and I’m not white and I’m not pink and I’m not green. Eartha Kitt has no color, and that is how barriers are broken.

I love to tease men with my legs.

I punish myself more than anybody else does if I am stupid about my actions, and I suffer, really suffer.

Live theater to me is much more free than the movies or television.

I am a mother and I know the feeling of having a baby come out of my gut.

The audience has always been my best director.

If you’re looking for immediate rewards, you’re only looking for the money.
