The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses – behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.
I think if you are going to be a singer, you should sing. If you are going to be a dancer, you should dance. If you are going to do a combination of the two, you should make it very clear when you are singing and very clear when you are dancing.
By taking responsibility for how you choose to respond to anything or anyone, you’re aligning yourself with the beautiful dance of life.

When I am doing cardio I lose my muscle really fast because it just kills it. That’s why I have to do weights in the gym: to ensure I don’t lose my shape and can lift my dance partners above my head.
Dance has always been my passion, and I love it.
I loved dance.
I come from a background where bigger women are appreciated. After all, you can’t belly dance with a flat stomach, so my ideal body would be curvy, womanly and voluptuous.
The hype man’s job is to get everybody out of their seats and on the dance floor to have a good time.

I decided to go to dance school at 22, which is late for a dancer.
I must admit that I do love to dance, but doing it in front of the nation is a whole different matter!
The best thing about being a DJ is making people happy. There is nothing like seeing people get up from a table to dance or the expression on their face when they hear a song they love. I also love to educate people on music they have never heard.
I have great editors, and I always have. Somehow, great editors ask the right questions or pose things to you that get you to write better. It’s a dance between you, your characters, and your editor.
If you’re sitting across the table from someone, the geometry of the situation says ‘confrontation.’ If you’re walking with somebody, you’re heading in the same direction, and the spatial dance you’re doing is a little more cooperative.
Growing up, others girls wanted to dance and help their mums with the cooking. I liked to play soccer with the boys. Or I’d be off on my own, tilting mirrors towards the sun in order to burn armies of ants. That was my idea of fun.
I just like to hop up on the dance floor and do my thing.
The dance world was a big part of my growing up.
I’ve always wanted to be a live singer and have dance be the complement.
I grew up in Atlanta, Georgia, and I honestly started performing for my family when I was around three. I would jump up on the coffee table and I would get in the closet and ask that they introduce me to come out, and from that point on, my mother stuck me in dance class and children’s theater.
What’s wrong with the ‘Laffy Taffys’ and the Soulja Boys? We need fun records. We gotta have dance music. We gotta have club music. We gotta have kids’ music.
You’re being cast for your acting ability. It’s not based on the way your body functions. If you’re playing a lead in a movie, it’s for that character and they’ll tailor it to you. In a dance company, you have to fit in a definite mold.
I don’t remember not dancing. When I realized I was alive and these were my parents, and I could walk and talk, I could dance.
Some people buy records just to dance to ’em. Some people buy records to listen to the radio. And there’s people that buy records ’cause they listen to every song.
Everyone loves to dance. I’ve realize that’s a part of what I do more and more every day.

I don’t tap dance, and I don’t think you can learn to tap dance in three weeks at my ripe old age.
I know I have to be like people expect, because people love to dream with me, they like to think that I love my boat of 50 metres, that I drink Cristal for breakfast, that I dance until five o’clock in the morning. I am not like that.
I hope Britney doesn’t get bummed out that Lindsey is a better singer. It is not Lindsey saying it, it’s me. Lindsey would never say that. She’s an actress first. It’s just a bonus that she can dance and sing.
Usually climax scenes have emotional or action scenes but Podaa Podi’ has a climax with a dance performance.
My daily routine is set: I wake up and go for gymnastics, then dance class, gym, and come back home. That’s my life. I am very boring.

Dabbing was a way of fashion that turned into a dance.
Concert dance is the hardest kind of dance. We tour constantly, around the world, year in and year out. It just doesn’t work for everybody. It’s the lifestyle, it’s the stamina, it’s the love, it’s the dedication, it’s the commitment, it’s all those words.
Andy Warhol was a good friend of mine. We used to go to the Studio 54 nightclub together with the likes of Liza Minnelli, and we’d dance through the night.

People assuming that because I’m a great athlete, I can dance. But no. My rhythm is off a little bit.
I’ve always been just as interested in making people think as I am in making them feel, and one of the things this scientific process allows me to do is make the audience look differently at dance.
‘Rent-a-tile’ means when you go to a dance hall, some people take the middle of the dance floor and do their thing.
I never danced a step in my life so naturally. My first motion picture was a musical, and Bob Fosse was the choreographer. I didn’t exactly dance for Fosse, I just did the best that I could to do what he taught us to do.
My wife says that I become different once I start to work with animals. My movements become different, my mood is different. It involves letting everything fall behind you, becoming intuitive in your dealings with wild creatures in a way that bypasses reason. Sometimes it’s more like a dance than anything else.
You know, ‘Peepshow,’ in retrospect that seems like a good fit for me, but in the beginning, I’m sure you remember, nobody was sure if the show was going to last. Everybody was like, ‘What are you doing? You can’t sing, and you can’t dance. What are you doing in this show?’
I love to dance.
My life has been one great big joke, a dance that’s walked a song that’s spoke, I laugh so hard I almost choke when I think about myself.
Nature is so powerful, so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy – your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. It takes you to a place within yourself.

Sometimes it is hard to sing and dance at the same time, but I would rather be off and be real and genuine about it to my fans.
I do dance music, and I can be pretty camp myself from time to time.

Every time I dance, I’m trying to prove myself to myself.
Sometimes, when I’m alone, I put on six inch heels and wear nothing else and dance around in front of the mirror and do my little stripper dance.
