More quotes by Debbie Reynolds
Marilyn Monroe was a very sweet girl, she was a very innocent girl.
Debbie Reynolds
Every performer should learn a little bit of everything. Most performers today only play the guitar.
Debbie Reynolds
I stopped making movies because I don't like taking my clothes off. Maybe it's realism, but in my opinion, it's utter filth.
Debbie Reynolds
I don't think anything I could ever do could make Gene Kelly look better than he was.
Debbie Reynolds
[Bob Fosse] was a temperamental fellow - it was his way or the highway.
Debbie Reynolds
We've lost a lot of our great stars. I can't hang out with those who aren't here. The phone service to heaven is so bad, you know. But I get to visit with their memories.
Debbie Reynolds
Singin' in the Rain (1952) and childbirth were the two hardest things I ever had to do in my life.
Debbie Reynolds
Marilyn Monroe was taken advantage of by most of the men that knew her, including Frank Sinatra and Joe DiMaggio, whom I also knew very well.
Debbie Reynolds
My belief also is that Marilyn Monroe passed away long before she should have left us.
Debbie Reynolds
Years ago nudity was not done in the United States. But during that late 1950s era in Vegas it began at the Tropicana, and spread to the other venues. Now the showgirls are going away again and Cirque du Soleil, the magic acts and the animal acts reign in Las Vegas. But I don't think you'll completely lose the boobie shows.
Debbie Reynolds
I also have a pair of ruby red slippers from the 'Wizard of Oz' and Dorothy's gingham dress...and on and on. I saved as much as I could and still do, because people are still interested in it.
Debbie Reynolds
Donald O'Connor was in the film [ 'Singin' in the Rain' ] as well, and he was only 27 years old. So we were closer in age, and had more fun together on the set. Gene was more my teacher and mentor.
Debbie Reynolds
Live is exciting, live is real, the people are there.
Debbie Reynolds
A lot of people don't feel like doing very much. Or one project is really all they can do at one time. I can have five or six things going at the same time. It doesn't bother me or tire me, but sometimes it does rattle me.
Debbie Reynolds
[Marilyn Monroe] was a bit temperamental, a little diva-like, but she didn't deserve what she got.
Debbie Reynolds
If I ever stop working, I might have a problem. But I never seem to be able to stop working.
Debbie Reynolds
That's what a writer does they make things up and that makes for good reading.
Debbie Reynolds
I have the largest private collection in the world [of Hollywood memorabilia].
Debbie Reynolds
You probably only know what you've read [about Marilyn Monroe].You didn't know her. The people who talk about her didn't know her either.
Debbie Reynolds
If you're a dancer, study singing. You have to do everything and do it well. You have to study acting. You have to study all of it. You have to find workshops, get out on the stage...and fail.
Debbie Reynolds
