I have a plate on my neck. I had my neck fused.
You have to know me first to think I'm pretty.
The only time I've ever danced every day was during 'Dancing with the Stars' and in the two-week rehearsal for 'Dirty Dancing,' and that was only to do a particular dance.
When my body and face were perfect as far as youth, I wasn't happy.
There are millions of Americans who are suffering from chronic pain.
It's like dance is a metaphor for going beyond where you think you can go.
Dance is the only thing that makes me feel good.
It's very hard to balance being there for somebody else and taking care of yourself.
Unfortunately, the people I end up seeing the least are my girlfriends.
Anyone who thinks I'm a plastic-surgery freak is insane.
Ageing is inevitable, and the idea that we can be eternally youthful is the pitfall of our society.
I went to dance class as a girl because I didn't like sports, but I never did a dance recital in my life. Never, ever, ever. I felt comfortable dancing, and I was happiest dancing, but I was never the best person in the class.
I will always have pain. But I exercise as much as I can, and I find that makes a huge difference. And if my body does seize up, I have a pain plan in place. If it escalates, I go back to my doctor.
Give yourself pleasure; see your friends; go to the movies.
