Question Stevie & Ballet
So I've been watching some of Stevie's videos on youtube.com (& thanks to whoever posted this website, I am really enjoying watching them) & I'm seeing a few videos with Stevie doing ballet. Did she actually take ballet classes or something because it really looks like she knows a little ballet or at least used to do a little ballet?

Wait - did you see more than the tusk doc angel ballet portion? Did you? what?
I think she did ballet when she was young.

She studied Russian classical ballet in 1978, taking lessons four times per week.

I remember her saying in some ancient interview ,in a typical burst of grandiosity, that she really wanted to be a prima ballerina but 'I started too late'.I think it is also that she had very little talent for it

It's hard to be stunning, graceful, inhumanly flexible, and have a good memory. I think I made the right choice, though.

I'm not so sure. I definitely don't think she would have had the discipline. But she seems graceful and flexible from many pics/video I've seen, and she was naturally fairly slender (not bulky muscles). So, I think she would have had some talent for it, though not enough to be a prima ballerina. Her arms/hands in particular are very graceful. (IMO)

Did you make the stevie lightning one? I really like it. It's kind of cheesy, kind of cool, and very pretty. I would tootally have that as a poster.

Edit - I just set it as my wallpaper. On full screen it's a bit pixelated, but it looks pretty cool.

Yeah, I made it. Cheesy indeed! I thrive on cheesiness.

I think I still have the files, I can email you a bigger version without the text if you like.

I love it. I kind of think of Stevie's energy like that anyway.

Yep, I'll leave the text for ya, sending it now.

It wasn't hard to make, I like fiddling about with images, I made the one next to it in much the same way.

I love editing this stuff, I use PhotoImpression4 mostly, at least until I can get something like PhotoShop.

The lyrics on both pictures are from "I Can't Steer My Heart Clear of You" by Elton John, cool song, check it out if you're interested.
