Music breaks my heart constantly.

The earth has grown old with its burden of care but at Christmas it always is young the heart of the jewel burns lustrous and fair and its soul full of music breaks the air when the song of angels is sung.

It was Elvis who really got me hooked on beat music. When I heard 'Heartbreak Hotel' I thought this is it.

I can still love an ex as a person regardless if the breakup was bad. I would never wish anything negative on them. It takes more energy to hate them than to wish them well.

What's that line from TS Eliot? To arrive at the place where you started but to know it for the first time. I'm able to write about a breakup from a different place. Same brokenness. Same rock-bottom. But a little more informed now I'm older. Thank God for growing up.

The heart will break but broken live on.

If I have to produce movies direct movies whatever to change the way Hollywood treats older women I'll do it. If I have to bend the rules I will. If I have to break them I will.

If I did any movies I'd have to take a break from singing because I'd want it to be really good.

I took acting classes in college and once I graduated I decided to give acting a shot when I couldn't really think of anything else to do. It took me a couple of years to get an agent and my first big break was The Fanelli Boys which was a sitcom on NBC. Then I did a few television movies.

Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
