When you cut your life into a film – 90-some minutes of film – you end up taking snapshots and vignettes of the highlights of it – marriage, divorce, death, success, fame, loss. The up and the down and the up again.
The consumption of highlights on ESPN is greater than everybody else’s combined. Fifty-six percent of all news and information consumed in sports is consumed on the ESPN platforms.
Going through college a Red Sox fan and knowing the history behind everything that was going on back in the ’80s and finally getting a chance to win a World Series for this great city and bringing it back after 86 years, it was truly special, and it’s one of the highlights that I’ll remember for a long time.
A scientific prize is an ambiguous thing: it highlights an individual when we should highlight a collective effort, but I’m not alone.
‘School Daze’ was one of the highlights of my life because it was the first chance I had to act on screen. I would have been happy if that had been it, because I proved that I could do it.
I want to have an epic life. I want to tell my life with big adjectives. I want to forget all the grays in between, and remember the highlights and the dark moments.
There are some real memorable highlights in my history that, in my mind, are such milestones. Winning a national championship in college and being on the Olympic platform getting a gold medal. Visiting the Hall of Fame and going into the Hall of Fame.
And my mistakes are always the highlights on ESPN’s ‘SportsCenter.’
I go home after games to watch the highlights with my friends, and I listen to the commentary and to the experts. I always get home by 10 o’clock at night so I can watch it live.
Working with Bernardo Bertolucci was one of the greatest highlights of my whole life. It was such an incredible opportunity for me.
Creamfields is, without doubt, 1 of the highlights of year for me. I really can’t wait to come back.
I’ve read some things where people are like, ‘Beyonce wants to be white’ because she has blonde highlights in her hair, but it’s ridiculous. You know, she is who she is, and she’s a very proud black woman. I know people with natural hair that are the least black inside; you know, it doesn’t matter.
It’s really weird seeing someone impersonating you. But at the same time, Vic Reeves’ impersonation of me is one of the highlights of my life.
Being blonde, for me, means never having to say: ‘I’ll have the honey-striped half-head of highlights for £200,’ to a bored colourist in a Mayfair salon, which is much more satisfying, not to mention cheap.
I always need a couple of highlights to really spark the passion for a project.
As I am straight up and down, I make a good flapper. One of the highlights of my life was dancing the Charleston with Len Goodman in a nightclub in a cream, Twenties-style dress; it was the nearest I’ll ever get to appearing on ‘Strictly’.
Being on ‘Dancing with the Stars’ was such a fun experience and one of the highlights of my career.
