"Any entertainer and any performer that had to come through New York had to come through this building (Roseland). Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, we've had Madonna here, the Rolling Stones, and that's what gives the Roseland Ballroom its history and its fame."
"What do you after 16 Grammys and millions of records sold?...whatever makes you happy...All I have to do is have fun, have artistic freedom to do whatever I want...It's not about the frills, it's not about production, it's not about choreography and costumes, it's about the music."-Beyonce`
