When I perform on stage, you have to remember my performance or buy another ticket to the party! In television and film, you can see it over and over again.

My job as a performer is to make sure that whatever happens in a performance lives in somebody else, that it's memorable... If you forget tomorrow what you heard yesterday, there's really not much point in you having been there - or me, for that matter.

Above all, I am an opera singer. This is how people will remember me.

I don't want to talk about the specifics of other people's performances compared with my own. I'd never do that.

My performances have finally caught up with my ego.

I've realized that I can do performances.

It hurts me to consider anybody questioning my performances.

I don't know why people are so surprised by my live performances.

I tend to be hypercritical of my performances. That's why I hate watching them with people I know.

I want people to remember me as a full on entertainer and a good person.
