I believed in Santa Claus until I was much older than the average kid. One year, my mom wrote `Merry Christmas, Stacy` on a chalkboard and told me it was written by Santa. I was like, `Oh my God, he knows my name!` I truly believed. Then a kid ruined it for me one day and told me there was no Santa, and I came home crying. The sad part was that the girl who told me was younger than I was.

I think there were a lot of women out there watching and voting, and there were a lot of men out there watching, but not voting.

I`m already a winner, all of us are.

That has never even crossed our minds or come up. From day one, I met his wife; I became friends with her.

People don`t realize the effects of dancing on your body. I`m completely head to toe lean, and I`ve just lost two jean sizes.

I wasn`t really that disappointed because I felt that we did a good job.

They ended up wanting someone with an authentic British accent, and I didn`t have enough time to prepare and go in an audition and act like I could pull it off because I was training for dance.

It upset me because I put in over 250 hours of practice for this show ... and just because I had ballet when I was a kid, maybe it helped, but I was never the kind of dancer that I became during this competition, and I had never done ballroom dancing.

I love performing in front of a live audience. I dont get nervous at all. I`d rather perform in a huge arena than in front of a handful of people.
