Faith in God is the most precious gift any parent could give their child.
It's very '60s mod. She looks very sophisticated tonight.
And I do - make no mistake, I am a Christian and I believe in God, and I don't believe he makes mistakes. So I don't believe that being gay is not a sin, and in fact it's how you're made.
This business is very challenging--you must get used to rejection no matter what level you are at. Not everyone is going to like what you do or what you have to offer; however, if you can't see yourself doing anything else, and you have the drive and ambition, get the training and go for it. Because there is nothing more rewarding
Reese said she was really sad she didn't get to see me do Wicked . All of our friends say we are the other.
He was like my father. We talked about how we wanted to die, and John said, 'I just want to go quick.' And he did.
Someone like me, with my height, my look, the sound of my voice, it's been great to play someone who's smart, ... She's one of the smartest people in the room, and the writers are writing for that.
I play Glinda, who defiantly has some issues. Of course I don't know a woman who doesn't. I think a lot of women can understand and relate...Women can be very tricky with one another, and this show is a prime example of how friendships can come together and separate.
We were all given our opportunities to be ourselves. A little bit of ourselves.
I'm very, very sad to say that the only Sondheim show I've done is A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC and it was when I was in college.
I don't speak during the day. I warm up physically and, obviously, vocally, constantly. And I try to live like a nun.
I love eating at Sonic with my family in Oklahoma. And no, I'm not kidding.
I enjoy going to Palm Springs when I'm living in Los Angeles.
I am a creature of the sun. I don't ever mind being in the heat.
