I work really hard, and I think I am a
very guilty person. So I give them a lot and
let them do a lot within reason. But I've always
raised my kids to lead with kindness. And they might
be spoiled at times with what I give to them.

(00:42):
And I give to them because I want to, and
when I can, I can, and I work really hard.

to school and I would have to like hide so
I didn't get beat up by this one girl because
she'd be like, oh that's the kid, Oh the limo,
her daddy has a limo. And I'd be like I'm sorry.
I don't want him to have a limo. I can't
control this. I didn't ask for it. I just want

(03:12):

in life.

So when I was growing up, my dad had his
TV show Vegas because my dad didn't fly, so our
summers we would go and we would travel because my
dad and Sammy and Dean, like Dean Martin my godfather.
There's always the debate whether I think they told Sammy
he was my godfrother as well, so there's that debate.

(26:12):
But I couldn't say his name, so it was uncle Bean,
I would say, and Uncle Sammy. But we would travel
to Vegas with them and we would get the penthouse.
There were two the pen the desert ends. So this
had to have been in the eighties. By by then,
and uh, Uncle Sammy would have his half, we would
have our half. We would stay there through his whole,

(26:34):
like for the summer. So I got to see him
before and after each show, and he was just like
my dad. He'd be like the next day in his
robe and so. And I was like, this is a
legend and icon and that was him.

Speaker 3 (26:50):

How do you pay people with a lot of Italian
A lot of Italians don't go to their head, right,
That's normal.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
So he gave me.

Speaker 1 (27:12):
I remember one day he was like, come here, want something,
and he brought me into a room and gave me
one of his original taps from stap Shoes Sammy Davis
Junior did. And I kept that forever because I was like,
Uncle Sammy gave me this. And I didn't understand as
much as I understand in hindsight now because to me

(27:32):
he was just family, right. But what a legend and
what an honor that was. But when he passed, my
dad and I never saw my dad cry. My dad
was inconsolable. It was the best one of his best friends.
And I said, and I went and got I had
never told him that he had given it to me.
Fend got on my drawer and I said, Dad, uncle,
Sammy gave me this, and I want to give it
to you. He kept that, he kept that in his nightstands.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
You talk about your show that you're doing in January
because I'm coming. I don't come to the mailboury.

Speaker 4 (28:13):
I wanted I use cave here to honor your father
and you and proud on you and telling you that
the world is too little for you.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
You don't not going to care for nothing.

Speaker 4 (28:24):
You keep growing, growing, growing, and were destiny now is
next to the book Producio, Big prod.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
No limits.

Speaker 3 (28:36):
Maybe it's a studio.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
You mean network was too small because you said something
about women opening the door. Men notoriously have run studios,
movie studios.

Speaker 3 (28:48):
Maybe I'll do that next.

Speaker 2 (28:49):
I have an idea. I'm going to teach you Flamenco.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
That I'm going to shut the better.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
Talking about attitude. Gypsy Kanos sing to the sound say
goodbye dance to the moon. They don't care.

Speaker 4 (29:12):
They're going to make money or eat or it music
say their lives. And that's how my sister migros for
Team two three years until.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
Seven that we began home less. Listen to they that
bulleria one to three want to three and you see
little body Hella.

Speaker 4 (29:35):
Singing careless under the moon with fire bampfire. And that's
what you close your right when when you see nothing
is impossible and you go to these people have no home,
have no food, had nothing to do, but they are
alive and they are and that they want to three
for everybody going crazy for boler Rea and I can't

(30:01):
don't never forget that. Uh keep it going and keep
it going and keep it going belly big time and
I will maybe okay to do an especial, but I
got to be the secretary producer be goo. I want
to say the truth, only the truth, and everything the truth.
And then if that doesn't happen, I don't accept the bill.

(30:24):
I gotta be too that I were lying my sister
me and my sister creator.

Speaker 2 (30:29):
All they cost you.

Speaker 4 (30:31):
I want laughing the other day they buy me to
see that if we the start, you know I were
there I loved it.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
The beautiful people I know.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
But Eastern and I did a podcast this entire season
called Miss Stepping that we hosted.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
Together of this and we were going to go that night.

Speaker 1 (30:49):
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, and Eastern and I didn't get
to go, and he said, oh my gosh, well everybody
want to go because maybe we could be there and
sit next to Charles.

Speaker 3 (31:01):
And then the next we watched the show and you're
there more like that.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
I loved it.

Speaker 4 (31:06):
They do.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
They're very good. They're very good.

Speaker 4 (31:10):
I was. I was said, what what are they going
to do now? How are they going to destroy these people?
With so many dreams, so many dreams and telling you
go to whoa? I think there was so I was lucky.
I was lucky. I was sometime lucky. Only God can
tell you. I have I have a big concert to do, big, big,
big concept to do and big concept. And I said,

(31:33):
because a minimum six thousand people at the Mohegan sund
and there in the countract is that you get to
be there until they kick you out. And I were
doing very good with Flamenco. But I was so lucky
that my dad was Dibo.

Speaker 2 (31:53):
And I hate it. I don't know how to do it.
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (31:57):
And I said, why your meal the perfect the day
that I supposed to keep and going, thank God, And
of course I cannot done a pop and I drop
vacashy my good partner. I don't know how to do it.
I only done flamenco.

Speaker 2 (32:18):
I do all of these.

Speaker 3 (32:21):
And as to dance, you got back bang.

Speaker 4 (32:24):
Yeah, a Q not my cup of tea. And I
make a mistake, not properly. No, it's just that I
was I suck and they said.

Speaker 2 (32:33):
You gotta go. And then they got three days later with.

Speaker 4 (32:37):
My big openy at the Mohigan, so I did not
have to cancel the Mohican.

Speaker 3 (32:42):
Saf I have chills right now.

Speaker 2 (32:45):
It's history, is it? Destiny?

Speaker 3 (32:48):
Destiny?

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Everything happens for a reason, even in the moment you're like, wait,
So I was on Dancing with not bringing this back
to myself, but I was on Dancing with the Stars
last season, and I had been asked many seasons, always
said no because of fear.

Speaker 3 (33:04):
I went on Dancing with the Stars. I was eliminated first.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
How can you do that?

Speaker 3 (33:13):
At the beginning, I know, well, the first two weeks
it was a double elimination.

Speaker 2 (33:18):
What are you? How are you done well?

Speaker 4 (33:22):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (33:23):
We Oh god?

Speaker 3 (33:24):
We did the fox trot the first year.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
That's the one that I hate because of that.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
It's so hard.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
I just I'm a good freestyle dancer. I just cannot,
like my brain doesn't think about and this stuff. And
then I'm like, I'll learn it, do well, and then
he'll be like, great, let's do it again, my partner,
and I'd be like, I already forgot it.

Speaker 4 (33:48):
What I the lucky one that they give me? Because
you cannot console. You cannot console, you never consoler. I
mean you can now go and say can I go?
Know that your contract?

Speaker 2 (34:01):
I know that you know? But yea. Both saved my life,
but I didn't know that.

Speaker 1 (34:07):
No, I didn't have jitter ball. First dance was foxtrot.
My next dance, oh my gosh, East didn't he didn't
want me.

Speaker 3 (34:19):
Wait wait, oh my god. My second dance is the
one that sent me home. It was good, by the way,
well god, what was it?

Speaker 2 (34:26):
It was rumba it.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
But anyway, I was learning and I was standing up straight.
I was finding innerconfidence through dance. So something that I
went there to do because I wanted I always said no,
I always said no.

Speaker 3 (34:42):
I was going through a divorce and I said, you
know what, why have I never done it? Oh it's fear.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
I don't want my kids to know that. So I'm
going to take on something that I'm terrified to do.

Speaker 3 (34:53):
And I did it, and I got into that training,
and well, you know me, once I committed, I worked
my ass off, I was dedicated, I was driven. I
gave it my all. But it changed me emotionally.

Speaker 1 (35:04):
The dance I felt good, I felt inspired of the
beauty of dance.

Speaker 3 (35:09):
And then second week I was like, oh my gosh,
I'm here to stay. And I got eliminated first first, first,
one to go, first two.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
So but then I had been offered a movie and
I had to turn the movie down because I was
on Dancing with the Stars. So I got eliminated first.

Speaker 2 (35:31):
You know, second week, do you unlucky?

Speaker 1 (35:34):
My manager calls them and says, you know, I don't
know if the movie's gone.

Speaker 3 (35:39):
But Tori heard the dates work.

Speaker 1 (35:40):
Now she was supposed to, you know, be on Dancing
with the Search, but she just got eliminated. They said, great,
can she be here tomorrow?

Speaker 2 (35:47):
I did the movie.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
Start in a movie, so take that rumba rama, rumba's
what's in my house is a rumba.

Speaker 4 (35:58):
They don't get you out. In my hand of the
movie I did, I did not say nothing. I did
not know that I were going to the Mohigganshan. But
I was worried that if I win, say goodbye to
that concert.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
But I was lucky.

Speaker 4 (36:14):
You know, it just lacked that in the thing. I said,
the meal, it is coming tango. I'm gonna win because
I know how to do that tango. But that good people.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
I love them. I loved dinner. I love she very
very very very beautiful people. Again for inviting.

Speaker 3 (36:38):
It's a great eye too. She knows your partner.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
Called me once in a while.

Speaker 4 (36:45):
I nothing changed in my life except that I traveled
more than ever. I am always knowing that whatever is
your mood, you always will continue other moves.

Speaker 2 (36:59):
It's in your DNA.

Speaker 4 (37:00):
I think, I truly think that when somebody passed away,
you don't know, but they keep be helping you.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
My shit.

Speaker 4 (37:12):
I mean, we have been very close many times to
have an accident, to crash in a play thing like that.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
Somebody up there is leading you.

Speaker 4 (37:25):
And I was happy when I hear pecause I'm want
to be here three more day then I travel, but
that's okay, I'm gonna see. I'm going to tell her
how much the father loved her. I want to tell
her how was she doing and with mama and everything.
You are blessed.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
I am, okay, so very blessed.

Speaker 1 (37:51):
I really want you when you have time, because you
don't stop. And I know you have your shows through February,
but I want you to meet my kids at some point.

Speaker 3 (37:59):
I really like.

Speaker 4 (38:00):
They were very I know, but I want to let
them come to our table. They're very educated, but.

Speaker 3 (38:05):
I want you to have time.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
I'll bring them over to your house when you're here,
and I want to cook with you, okay.

Speaker 2 (38:13):
And all I get to tell you is that spelling.

Speaker 4 (38:19):
Keeping going and going and going, and passage your DNA
to your children, their story, your grandpapa, everything in Georgia,
and when they pick up.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
A book and say, okay, this is his story. And
I'm going to tell you my life.

Speaker 4 (38:34):
We have a deal, because my deal is yes, I
will accepted to do an especial as a loan that
I uh and my sister controlling, that's not true, that's
not true. That they're true because people look for no
people producers look for something bad, scandle No, it is

(38:59):
something good.

Speaker 2 (39:00):
It happened.

Speaker 4 (39:01):
You are trained, educated, lucky definitely, but not necessarily had
to go.

Speaker 2 (39:09):
Sorry, listen to me.

Speaker 4 (39:11):
Educated your children, your children need not I will need
education your.

Speaker 3 (39:20):
Children academic education or life education.

Speaker 2 (39:23):
I agree. Did you do that? No, I don't know exactly.

Speaker 4 (39:27):
I believe in love and academic What is your what
is your logo? What do you recommend that, what you
should do to your children?

Speaker 3 (39:38):
Oh, that's a whole other story. We're gonna wrap this up.
I think.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
I think education is changing, academics, and I hope it
changes sooner than later. I believe that when I was
growing up, I was always sent to the best private schools,
but academically at the time, everyone was put into a box, right,
and no one's the same. So I grew up knowing

(40:10):
I was very you know, I did all the plays
in school, and I was in the drama department. I'd
make my friends laugh and I had fun with my friends.
And there were some really kind teachers to me that
I'd still have never forgotten. But missus Christopher in fourth grade,
I love her. Anyway, I came away from the academic

(40:33):
system thinking I was a stupid girl and I'm a
very smart woman. But because I couldn't do the math
at the grade level I was supposed to, and I
got held back, and because of the shame, I felt
embarrassment from the other kids or raising my hand and

(40:54):
people laughing if you said the wrong answer.

Speaker 3 (40:56):
I just stopped, and I just I don't know.

Speaker 1 (40:59):
I just think our kids now are learning their passions
earlier in life, and we're listening to them, and not
everyone should be taught the same way.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
Cooper.

Speaker 4 (41:16):
My advice is the mode love and time you get
from your parents, the better of you do with life.

Speaker 1 (41:24):
That's yeah, and I can give that, and I know
you did it big windows I can go, but I
can give it tenfold fold of love.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
In every way?

Speaker 4 (41:36):
Do they?

Speaker 3 (41:37):
And I on Jerry Maguire, what was it? Sorry? I
quote movies all the time.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
I'm all heart motherfucker?

Speaker 3 (41:43):
Right, jor sorry?

Speaker 2 (41:46):
That is the war that I have no action. I
when I said bit war, no action. When you say
what no?

Speaker 4 (41:57):
I love my action when I say a motherfucker, it's perfect.
When I said screw you oqu no accents? Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (42:06):
Well that's cool.

Speaker 4 (42:09):
When you go to you learn languages. I don't know why.
The only world that you never forget is the bad world.
I went to Japan, I speak Japanese, but somebody said
uncle Unko, and I said, where is that?

Speaker 2 (42:25):
All that chad? I cannot take it off from my mind?
And then why why is mother forget?

Speaker 3 (42:32):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (42:33):
I tried no, no, no, no, perfect peach every single
word in every language I learned. My brain taken without
an accent. And I am very careful when I talk,
but don't come out because to me mean nothing because
it's another language. You say, put in Spanish. Hey, you're

(42:55):
telling me that my mother is a bitch. But it's
just matterfucket to me like a coffee, you know, because
it's a language that is not in my DNA. And
I'm careful because my sister say that every minute. When
she went to say matter, I said, don't say that.

(43:18):
It's a bad word.

Speaker 3 (43:19):
Oh, but she says, it's just like it's nothing like
to the dog, to the dog.

Speaker 2 (43:24):
That people in the for in nothing, but it just
said they put a son of a beach in it
my mother. Ah. So people that doesn't born with that
language don't mean nothing.

Speaker 4 (43:42):
We don't know why they impact like Ohm living.

Speaker 2 (43:46):
But I'm gonna tell you. I have a big hit.

Speaker 4 (43:50):
With a song in China. It was Flamenco Spanaka. It
was a big war in Florida and I were nominated.
I did not win, but I were nominated one of
the top song of the years take No. I went
to Berlin school and I said, tell me how you

(44:11):
say Chinese?

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Good Divini? How are you welcome? Everybody? Thank you so much?
And they said, do we care for Chara? We know
you don't get too excited.

Speaker 4 (44:26):
Yeah, Chinese is all the same, but different intonations have
different meaning. They say, well, yes in the true story.
And I said, why can I say? How can I
say good divining? How are you welcome? And he said
one shang how, one shank, almost like monot Yeah, but

(44:47):
you cannot get out for that south and get passionate
and another meeting one shar But when you go and
in thousands of people applauding, you not want to say
once how?

Speaker 2 (45:02):
I went how? And I hear, oh, oh my god, yeah.

Speaker 3 (45:08):
What would the meaning?

Speaker 2 (45:10):
And then came the Chinese speaker to me, what you
have done? What you had done? What happened?

Speaker 4 (45:17):
What happened by the microphone and I tell him, tell
him that they told me to say that, and he
was telling them my story and thank god they tender
run and started laughing and a proudy.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
The story was I didn't I know that it was
aware to say one that sound. But by saying wow,
how I love you? Whatever? It was the word war
you can say in china O.

Speaker 3 (45:48):
You're saying a phrase, the tone you say it in
changes the meaning.

Speaker 4 (45:55):
Yes, what According with my teacher at Berleider School, you
got to be who dvn welcome whatever you wre chund
leg one sha how I like you got non idea?
But when it came to you and plow the music

not good. No, it was not good.

Speaker 4 (46:24):
And he apployed to everybody and I like that said
sorry and sorry and sorry and people are probab.

Speaker 2 (46:31):

power something we had no action in bad word. We
