What is your dance experience?
I wound up doing my fair share of tap dancing in my high school production of No, No, Nanette. Years later, however, I donated my Capezios to Goodwill knowing that someone else would definitely make better use of them--and now I don't usually venture beyond "tasteful swaying" when on the dance floor. However, on the podium, it's a different story...
Why are you doing this event?
Every child deserves a life filled with love, happiness and good health. It is our obligation to do whatever we can to make sure this can take place by giving maximum support to these kids and their families during their times of need.
Why should people vote for you?
Simply because I seem to be the oldest one in the bunch! It takes a lot to get me to tap into my inner Gene Kelly and do jumps and turns in public: I'm willing to make a fool of myself to help raise money for the children, but I need as much support as I can get!
