Practically everyone in Hollywood has a neighbor who's been famous, wants to be famous, is famous, has been married to someone famous, worked with someone famous, slept with someone famous, been blackmailed by someone famous.
I've always been a defiant little animal - always very much my own person.
When you're in a relationship you really care about, you want to protect it and not talk about it.
I wasn't a dancer learning to play Baby Houseman. I was Baby Houseman learning to play a dancer. I was someone who'd never done any Latin dance. I'd taken jazz classes and ballet growing up in New York, so I had dance in me, and I knew I loved it, but I'd never done a dance audition.
I would love to work with my dad! We've never done anything live together. I'm always open to working with talented people, and I think my dad certainly qualifies.
I would love to do a little ballroom dancing with my husband... He and I can take a couple classes together. It would be a lot of fun!
I wish anytime I went into a nice restaurant and asked for a table, they said, 'Well I'm sure you don't want one in the corner.'
When I try to be perfect, it makes me not have fun.
I basically walked around with a goiter for four years because I was so afraid of surgery.
I was raised on Broadway because of my dad, but I never thought I had what it took to make it there, although I always wanted to.
I have been suffering for so long and didn't even recognize it. I just stopped doing so many things that I used to love to do due to my pain.
My father taught me you have to believe in yourself and run on your own track.
I'll always be this once-famous actress nobody recognises because of a nose job.
I had intelligent, high-minded, liberal parents who wanted to make sure my values were just like theirs.
