...looks, "Man when I got into show business you know everybody started saying, 'You've got a beautiful face. Beautiful face.' So uh then hey I looked in the mirror and I said, 'Hey yeah. They're right.' Khyem-muh. Rudolf Nureyev can't look like I look. You know like I guess you could say I got a unique face. I mean the only person who's got a face that even comes close to mine is Margaret Rutherford. That's my idol." Cheetah also uncovered the "first great mass...

Not content with two performances at the Monte Carlo Opera, Rudi fetched Lee onto the floor at the Black Jack Club for what was probably his first pas de deux anywhere...
...Karajan's Ring, which is being mounted with a $500,000 grant from Eastern Airlines, may or may not end the current Wagnerian decline at the Met-and Manager Rudolf Bing's well-known distaste for the German master. In the 1890-91 season, 39 of 70 Met performances were Wagner; in 1965-66, the last season at the old house, ten out of 212.
