Ballet

[~GoldDustWoman~]

I've seen a video of Stevie doing ballet and I know she did a bit for the Stand Back video or at least one scene in it and she said she wanted to do en pointe but didn't, so i'm curious how much ballet does she do? Did she do it as a kid or something?

She did ballet in the late 70's.
From inherownwords.com:
[On her Russian ballet lessons she has been taking four times a week] My neck is stretching out and I'm walking around all graceful. At three in the morning I'm doing plies. I'm not trying to be a prima ballerina - at twenty-nine it's too late for that - but I figure that I can be good.

I known in a scene from Tusk doc, right after Angel I think, they show her doing ballet and explaining how she needs to put her energy into something other than rock n' roll and that it's challenging and whatnot. I know the whole Tusk doc is on YouTube and you should able to find that scene easily.

She also talks about it in the commentary portion of the If Anyone Falls video on the Crystal Visions dvd.
