Oddly enough, I have really bad stage fright - getting up in front of people. And I made a living going on live television.

I'm comfortable in front of a camera, and I'm used to being watched, although that kind of bugged me at first. On the stage, though, I'm scared. I really get frightened in front of people.

I'm terrified of performing live.

I lived to be on stage, and I'm terrified. Terrified before every show.

It's frightening to be facing an audience. There is always the fear of what they think of you, what they are saying about you.

I used to be afraid of looking at the audience.

It's very difficult to get an audience to be terrified of what's going on. Think about it: You're in a room with so many other people, so for them to be terrified and to care about what's going on on-screen takes a lot of work.

I am always scared before going on stage; this is the fear which makes me do well.

I'm too scared to perform onstage. I'm not very good with big crowds.

I had no fear 'cause it seemed everyone in the audience always applauded whatever I did. Course, maybe it was because I always seemed to know everyone in the audience.
