I was a professional dancer before I was an actor.

I was always going to be a dancer - I drifted into acting.

I actually started acting because I couldn't dance.

I came into the industry as an actor. And moved on to become a star with the help of my dancing skills.

I became a dancer late and an actor late.

Because I was a dancer, I started going to auditions for musical theater, which forced me to sing.

I was an okay singer. I was an okay dancer. But acting? Never could do it.

I was a dancer first, which made me realize how much I loved performing.

I was dancing on Broadway for many years. Then everyone was either getting injured or retiring, and I was dancing with younger dancers.

I had been a ballet dancer and never could make a living, and just being so excited that I got to, all of a sudden, live as an actor.
