Born: June 8, 1933 in Brooklyn, New York City, New York, USA
Died: September 4, 2014 (age 81) in East Harlem, Manhattan, New York City, New York, USA

Married to:
Edgar Rosenberg (15 July 1965 – 14 August 1987) (his death) (1 child)

[on her idea of a perfect childbirth experience] Knock me out with the first pain, and wake me up when the hairdresser arrives.

I’m in nobody’s circle, I’ve always been an outsider. I don’t have those wonderful dinners with Woody, I’ve never been asked by Jay. And it makes you sad, because I think it would be wonderful to sit and talk about things that very few people understand. But I’m very competitive, and I’m sure they feel that. I’m jealous of that little slut Paris Hilton. Why? I’m very competitive. And I think that’s what has kept me going. I’m not gracious.

Happy Birthday: Noah Taylor

If sleeping with people worked, I would be doing it. Do you know an example of anyone who’s ever slept with a producer or whatever that has gotten them anywhere?

There’s plenty of days when I’m like “Oh God, why?”. But that’s just life. It’s every job, not just mine. Every moment is not perfect. But it’s definitely more good times than bad. You can’t even compare. And when I’m on stage it feels incredible. There are certain nights that you know you hit that crazy note and you know that spin spinned extra fast. And you look out and people are just into it and you’ve worked so hard and now it’s paying off and you can see why you dedicated your life to this.

I was so happy to fall in love with an interior decorator! You know, he just moves things around at night or whenever, and it’s just amazing; it just completely changes.

I always feel like people in general are much weirder and insane than anybody really wants to admit. How dare somebody watch anything and go, ‘That’s not real!’ Go on the subway. For five minutes.

Brother of Dwayne Wayans, Keenen Ivory Wayans, Kim Wayans, Nadia Wayans, Marlon Wayans and Shawn Wayans. Also has sisters Elvira, Diedre, and Vonnie. Cousin of Craig Wayans. Uncle of Damien Dante Wayans.

I don’t ever want to be Number One because once you become Number One, you start to change. You get scrutinized on everything you do and you’re suddenly afraid to take chances. I need to take chances. I need to work. I don’t want to be a superstar.

[on wishing he had heard a story like his own in his early 20s] – This would have helped me, at least, if someone would have made me realize that you don’t need to do drugs to be artistic and express yourself. If you want to be artistic, if you want to be creative, if you want to express yourself, you can’t let things get in your way, and drugs are included in that.

charlottelebon.jpgCharlotte Le Bon

Born: September 4, 1986 in Montréal, Québec, Canada

Food from Quebec is not known to be amazing. Actually, even though you can eat really, really well in Montreal, it’s crazy. It’s one of the best cities I eat in, but typical Quebec food is like food from people that work in the woods. It’s potatoes, meat and sauce.
