I don't speak English, so I cannot foresee a career in Hollywood. But I do see myself more and more as an actress rather than a dancer.

One is born to be a great dancer.

Diana Vishneva is not only a magnificent dancer but a magnificent actress - no one works harder or understands more.

I was a professional dancer before I was an actor.

I heard a lot in school, 'You've got a really great talent, but there's no way you're going to be a dancer with that body.'

I always considered myself a dancer before anything else.

I don't think of myself as a dancer. I think of myself as a singer-actress who moves really well.

If some actress thinks she is sexy and she can dance, it's her choice. I do what I want to do, and I set my own benchmark. I will never compare myself with anyone.

Little did I know that there's nothing more competitive in the world than a professional ballroom dancer. They are as competitive as Olympic athletes.

I don't want to be known as an item dancer. I want to be known as an actress only.
