I think people should attend (Cascade of Talent) simply because of the variety of acts. It really is showcasing the talent of the youth in this area.

All too often the people who get the publicity and recognition are not the good kids.

It's kind of an optical illusion. Some of the moves make the girls look like they're breaking in two.

To me gender is not physical at all, but is altogether insubstantial. It is soul, perhaps, it is talent, it is taste, it is environment, it is how one feels, it is light and shade, it is inner music. . .

We just started playing with confidence and believing in ourselves. We've always had the talent and heart, we just needed the confidence. Everybody had written these girls off, but they didn't write themselves off.

If I have the power to post 'Happy Birthday' on someone's Facebook page and make them feel really good, it feels really good to make other people feel really good. I love it. I'm a huge Facebook and Twitter person. And I love talking to my fans. It's fun.
