performance
A recording of a performance is a recording of a performance. It's not the performance.
adore art costumes course figure full gay hate johnny love music queer supposed worship
Being queer you're supposed to adore figure skating. It's a sport, not an art. I love the costumes and hate the music and of course I worship Johnny Weir because so does he. Also he's real. It's a full gay thing and it always has been.
assume expected partners
You have to assume the partners are going to sell. It's to be expected when the restrictions are lifted.
ballet likes modern
If nobody comes to your shows, then it's modern dance. If everybody comes to your shows and no one likes it, is that ballet? I don't know.
hard-work dust interesting
I have a fabulous life. It is interesting and rigorous. I work hard. So leave me alone. Watch my dust. Shut up.
giving advice world
Sure, I could give advice; I could, say, travel the world, listen to music. But all I can really say is do something you want to do and do it well. And if you want to be a choreographer, then you have to make dances.
cooking problem restaurants
Here's the thing, I've been cooking more and more and I'm pretty good; the problem is I can only go out to restaurants that cook better than I do, therefore, it's expensive.
meals watches littles
I never eat standing up, I never eat in front of the refrigerator. I treat myself very formally with meals. I don't watch TV or read. It's a little bit of a ritual, and it's more enjoyable.
beautiful bigs bathtubs
I have a beautiful, big bathtub.
ideas way enough
No dance has ever turned out the way I thought it would, because I trust enough that I can start something with some ideas and then it takes itself somewhere.
dancing said
As I have said before, dancing is for anyone, but not for everyone.
opinion aspect certain
I didn't go to a conservatoire, and I have certain low opinions of certain aspects of the conservatory experience.
growing-up singing technique
I can read music, but I have no technique, and singing was never an option even though I sang a lot growing up.
sex way weakness
Usually that's going into biology in a certain way. There's certain strengths and weaknesses to both of the sexes. And I'm not against employing those nor am I against denying those, what I am looking for is a very large array of options.
