I was on a TV show about dancers for two and a half seasons called 'Bunheads' on ABC Family, and that was really fun for me because I'm a dancer in a real life.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A lot of people don't know the first time I was ever on national television I was a 'Soul Train' dancer.
The first show I did was 'The Nutcracker' ballet. I was one of the kids who comes out in the beginning.
I started on television. I had five years of network television before I ever got up on a stage. The first thing I ever did was in 1967. This guy Bill Keene had a little talk show at noon, and Gary Owens took over for a week. He knew about this dummy bit I used to do, this ventriloquist thing, and I was on 'Keene at Noon.'
I was always singing and dancing for my mother when I wasn't glued to the television watching I Love Lucy or the Carol Burnett Show.
I was a professional dancer before I was an actor.
When I was younger, acting, singing, and dancing was what it was all about.
I did community theater in Georgia and called myself a ballet dancer.
I used to be a dancer, and for me it was a really good combination of dance and acting.
I used to dance when I was younger - ballet and modern dance.
When I was a dancer, I was acting.
