...think my audience's first reaction to my music was, "Jackie Chan has a record?" They just couldn't believe it. But what could I do? I like to sing, so I always sing over the closing credits of my movies. The sound tracks always feature my voice.

...King of Pop, Michael Jackson, show up unexpectedly at the end of their number and steal the show. Of course, stealing the show away from 'N Sync isn't exactly grand larceny. LaToya Jackson could steal the show from 'N Sync. Jackson, ever the canny businessman, didn't really sing during his performance with the boys, he just did a few moves to whet the appetite. If you want to hear him sing, you have to plunk down your cash and see him at Madison Square Garden on September 7 and 10. Some seats are going for around...

...that when she sees vicious anti-Semitic slurs, "I am a Jew." (Sorry, Mary. It's not like being a "Berliner" - the rabbis are pretty protective over their criteria.)
