Bette Midler On Touring Before The Sitcom: “It can take 7 – 10 years for some of these projects. By the time you get it, you’re too old for the part. So I sing and I dance and I shake my tail feather. Thank God. Could you imagine if I couldn’t sing. If I couldn’t go out and be Bette? I’d have no life at all.” (Aberdeen Daily News, March 23, 1999)
