Zitat des Tages über Künstler / Performer:
'Calamity Jane' inspired me to be a performer. I still want to be her.
As a performer you are being used to keep people watching so the commercial endorsements that support the network can be seen by as many people as possible.
I am a professional performer and I only appear on TV for entertainment or for philanthropic organizations, and I consider this a very serious matter that doesn't fit into either category.
I'm a fan of Rihanna. I have all her albums. I love her music; she's a great performer. We've both gone on to great things. It's all love.
I always knew I wanted to be a performer. I started playing when I was in third grade, but I wasn't very good at all.
People don't always realize that as a performer, you've got to relive those moments. Memories crash through your brains, and you've got to think about your past and the reason why you wrote the song. All that emotion comes back.
I never thought of myself as a performer or songwriter or singer.
As a performer, I'm very, very confident in what I do.

It is still an open question, however, as to what extent exposure really injures a performer.
I'm a total performer.
Growing up, all I did was work and vacation, but I loved it, no one pushed me into anything. The thing was I developed no special skills. I don't have any resentment because I am a performer and I've always felt that, but it did take its toll socially.
I will definitely start in small venues, as I want to find my feet as a performer; the first shows that Westlife did was ten dates at Wembley, which was just crazy. We didn't have a clue what we were doing because it was so big.
I wanted to be performer; like, I used to dance at weddings. I felt acting was my calling, and that is something I wanted to do.
We live in such hypersexualised yet totally prudish times. People have this expectation about everyone else's relationship to their own bodies.'Surely you must have shame about your body? Surely what's scariest for you as actor would be to stand in a room naked?' Believe me, I've been in so many more terrifying situations as a performer than that.
I've been a performer for a long time, but I really don't have any dancing experience. I did some of the musicals in high school, and I was in the glee club for a little while just to try and gain some skills... I was not good at it.

As a performer, I'm happy if one person gets to see the work I do, but to have lots of people see it and appreciate it, it feels good.
There's still a lot I need to do as a player, as a musician, as a sound creator. I have commissioned 170 pieces: that's still not enough, there are still lots and lots of composers I would like to approach. When I see a composer and I see a performer, I think to combine those forces.
For me, there's a fine line between being a cheeseball and being a good performer.
Fans are what make a performer and I've always taken them seriously.
Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered a good performer.
What is a good performance? It lies in the hands and head of a performer... the shortest way between two people is not a straight line.
No one will ever be as good as Phil Hartman. He was such an amazing genius, and may be the best sketch performer of all time.
In every character that you play... I mean, I don't think I'll ever be the type of actor or performer per se who transforms, you know? Like Claire Danes transforms into Temple Grandin - I'm not gonna do that.
I worked with my parents on the stage in production numbers since I was 4, but I never really gave much thought to being a performer on my own until I was 12 or 13.

Every performer has a little gem, a little pearl they have done that nobody pays much attention to. And then one day, somebody does recognize it, which is so gratifying.
Madonna remains the most visible performer on the planet, as well as one of the wealthiest, but would anyone seriously say that artistic self-development is her primary motivating principle? She is too busy with Kabbalah, fashion merchandising, adoption melodramas, the gym, and ill-starred horseback riding to study art.
One tries to be an observer as an actor and indeed as a director because the small things, the give-away things are what are really interesting to a performer.
I don't remember ever deciding to become a performer. I just always was. I began performing by mimicking the performers on the new television that first took the attention away from me as the baby of the household. I continued performing to put a smile on my grandmother's face and always considered her when accepting or declining roles.
