You turn on the light in your house, it’s Thomas Edison. When you get on the phone, it’s Alexander Graham Bell. When you get on the dance floor, that’s Chubby Checker.
My mom took me to concert when we were living in Georgetown County in Georgetown, South Carolina and I was looking at Ernest Tubb, the country singer, and then she later took me to a show in Andrews, South Carolina where I saw a singer named Sugar Charles Robinson and after I saw those two people, I decided I’d have to be in show business. I was about four or five years old.
