I went to the High School for Performing Arts, and to Howard University on a talent scholarship.
- Anthony Anderson
I was at college doing performing arts, and just spending all my time mucking about, and the lecturers thought I would be pretty good at stand-up, so I gave it a whirl.
- Allan Carr
I'm into sincerity in music and sincerity in art. If it doesn't feel true, I don't want to do it. Things that are too dramatic scare me. I think that's why I don't always fit into the world of performing arts.
- Zooey Deschanel
I went to the Performing Arts School and studied classical ballet. That attitude is something that's put into your head. You are never thin enough.
- Carmen Electra
I went to a Canadian college for performing arts and then I auditioned for Canadian Idol. That honestly was my golden ticket.
- Carly Rae Jepsen
Dancers, like all performing artists, like nothing better than to be challenged.

- Christina Milian
My brother Trev went to the Professional Performing Arts School in New York, and he used to do his monologues and stuff and rehearse in our apartment. So I used to hear him all the time doing these things over and over and over. And when I was a little girl, I used to soak up everything - like anything anyone did, I soaked it up.
- Chloe Moretz
San Francisco has long been a leader in the arts, nurturing generations of painters, sculptors, poets, novelists, playwrights, film-makers, and performing artists and innovators of every kind.
- Gavin Newsom
More than in any other performing arts the lack of respect for acting seems to spring from the fact that every layman considers himself a valid critic.
- Simone Weil
Writing is a kind of performing art, and I can't sit down to write unless I'm dressed. I don't mean dressed in a suit, but dressed well and comfortably and I have to be shaved and bathed.
- Peter Otoole
In opera, as with any performing art, to be in great demand and to command high fees you must be good of course, but you must also be famous. The two are different things.
- Luciano Pavarotti
I always was drawn to the performing arts. I started dancing when I was two. I sang, loved to act, and loved going to visit my mom on-set. But she wanted me to have a normal childhood, so I wasn't really allowed to pursue acting till I got older.
- Rainey Qualley
Believe it or not, most people think of me as a recording artist, but actually the way I think of myself and the way I earn my living is as a performing artist.
- Helen Reddy
Quite honestly I never had a desire to be an actor. I tell people, I did not choose acting; acting chose me. I never grew up wanting to be an actor. I wanted to play football. In about 9th grade an English teacher told me I had a talent to act. He said I should audition for a performing arts high school so I did on a whim. I got accepted.
- Ving Rhames
I didn't go to a normal high school. It was for people in the performing arts.
- Marla Sokoloff
Music is a performing art, as any Native American will tell you. It isn't there in the score.
