The instant she entered the event, the “Gorgeous” singer made a beeline for The Favourite star, putting her head on his shoulder and hand on his chest. Swift didn’t leave Alwyn’s side, posing for photos and chatting with Alwyn’s co-star, Nicholas Hoult, as she kept her hand around Alwyn’s waist. At the end of the evening, the two exited through the back of the venue and away from the crowds.”

She was seen caressing his back as they chatted away to a pal. It was clear they were an item but Taylor appeared conscious not to make a big deal about her appearance - she was just there for a good time rather than working like she would have to at the Grammys. Taylor didn’t leave Joe’s side all evening.”

March 6th – Taylor drops an ELLE article titled “30 Things I Learned Before Turning 30.″ (x)

How to fight fair with the ones you love. Chances are you’re not trying to hurt the person you love and they aren’t trying to hurt you. If you can wind the tension of an argument down to a conversation about where the other person is coming from, there’s a greater chance you can remove the shame of losing a fight for one of you and the ego boost of the one who “won” the fight. I know a couple who, in the thick of a fight, say “Hey, same team.” Find a way to defuse the anger that can spiral out of control and make you lose sight of the good things you two have built. They don’t give out awards for winning the most fights in your relationship. They just give out divorce papers.

Apologizing when you have hurt someone who really matters to you takes nothing away from you. Even if it was unintentional, it’s so easy to just apologize and move on. Try not to say “I’m sorry, but...” and make excuses for yourself. Learn how to make a sincere apology, and you can avoid breaking down the trust in your friendships and relationships.

For too long, the projected opinions of strangers affected how I viewed my relationships. Whether it was the general internet consensus of who would be right for me, or what they thought was “couples goals” based on a picture I posted on Instagram. That stuff isn’t real. For an approval seeker like me, it was an important lesson for me to learn to have my OWN value system of what I actually want.

Playing mind games is for the chase. In a real relationship or friendship, you’re shooting yourself in the foot if you don’t tell the other person how you feel, and what could be done to fix it. No one is a mind reader. If someone really loves you, they want you to verbalize how you feel. This is real life, not chess.

Other people still saw Swift, Alwyn, Pattinson, and Waterhouse, and one onlooker told Us Weekly that the date happened. It was good fun. "The four were laughing and talking" all night, the onlooker said. "They were at a table, just the four of them. Rob and Taylor were across from each other."

Chapte 4: Christopher Robert Evans jealous? PFFFFFF

Disclaimer: Ugh, this chapter was the death of me. It took me about a week and a half! A lot of deleting, reediting, and whatnot. But here it is...

Someone, from Aria’s past as come into the picture...

**

Almost for got to mention a few things. First off, I’d like to thank my dear loves @shellbilee for helping me with this chapter! If it, wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be able to get this out!

Secondly... After this chapter is posted, I will be mainly focusing on One Shots. I intend of making this series a long one.... and getting chapters out... is really hard.

I’m working on a new One Shot, and I hope that it will be out in, the next few days. Spoiler? its called, Happy First Birthday. 

 fChapter 4:

Christopher Robert Evans… Jealous? PHIFFFFFFFFF!

3 weeks later…

Aria walked out, to the backyard with Chris’s red Boston Red Sox blanket, and bottle of Dr. Pepper in her hands. Just a 3 weeks ago, Chris and Aria found out, that she was pregnant. And it was, that night that Aria drove to the nearest Target, and bought every single pregnancy test, ever made.

**

3 weeks ago...

Aria pulled into the parking lot of Target, in Beverly Hills. It was late and they were about to close in 30 minutes. Just before, Aria got of the car, she looked in her bag.

“Fuck! I forgot my wallet.” Aria yelled. Chris laughed, and took out his wallet. Fishing out, a couple of 20’s and handed it to her, “Here, and you don’t owe me anything…” He said. Aria looked at him, took the money, and reached over to kiss him.

“Remind me, why I love you?” Aria said, between kisses. Chris laughed, and gently pushed away.

“You can, remind me later… now go!” He said. Aria laughed and got out of the car. Chris stayed in the car, and Aria made the run. Getting to the Ladies area of the store, Aria, grabbed a box each of the different brands of the tests. After, standing in line for 5 minutes and getting looks from the cashier, Aria made another dash to the parking lot. Getting in the car, she placed the bag on top of, Chris’s lap. He looked down and then back at Aria.

“Honey, did you just buy the whole section?” Chris asked, in disbelief. Aria started the car and turned to Chris, “Yes, I just want to be sure…” Aria said, pulling out of the parking lot. As they both reached home, Aria and Chris went into the house and headed straight to the bathroom, in Chris’s bedroom. Dumping out, the tests onto the counter, both Aria and Chris looked at all of them.

“Ayyyy, um… which one?” Chris asked. Aria looked at every box and took the one that was closets to her.

“Here, goes nothing…” Aria said…

30 minutes later…

Chris and Aria, both stood in front of the sink, where all of the applicators stood. With each, turning the same color, and one of them just simply said… PREGNANT.

**

Aria, thought about the look Chris gave, that night. He was in shock for a moment. Knowing, what has happened, he thought that it was impossible for the fetus to survive an injury like that… let alone stress. But after the appointment, that Aria made, the next day… the doctor had confirmed that she was indeed, pregnant. And with the, ultrasound Aria cried, and Chris was… just an emotional mess. Letting out, a small giggle, Aria placed the bottle of Dr. Pepper down, next to the couch.  Aria then pressed the start button, on the side of the firepit. Flashes of yellow and orange came to life. Taking a seat, behind her Aria wrapped the blanket around her. The scent of, his darn Gucci cologne made her smile.

Ding…

Aria frowned, and picked up her phone, that was in her front pocket of her jammie pants. Pressing the side button, the screen came to life, and 2 messages showed up.

1.       “Hi babe, I’m still running late. Not sure, when I will be home. If you are tired, feel free to head on to bed. I know, you had a long day today. Text, me… if you need something. Love you.” Chris

2.       “Hey, loser… IT’S your BEST friend, you know SCOTT EVANS?! I haven’t seen you, in a few days! Anyways, give me a call, when you get a chance. Miss your ugly face. 😉

Aria laughed at the last message. Then it hit her? How in the world, is she going to tell Seohae and Scott, that they are going to be an Aunt and Uncle? Sighing, Aria pressed Chris’s message and began to type.

“Hi honey, I know you’re going to be late. But we need to talk. I was thinking of inviting Scott and Seohae for lunch tomorrow… and we can tell them?”

SEND

After sending the messages, Aria placed her phone back into her front jammie pocket. Pulling in the blanket, in closer, Aria yawned, and looked up, towards the sky. Lifting her hand, towards the sky Aria, began to trace some of the constellations with her fingers. As she traced, her eyes were getting heavy and soon, she started to fall asleep…

**

Chris walked in the front entrance of his house. As he walked in, he walked in to see that Aria’s shoes were next to the doorway. He smiled, and looked up to see that the kitchen lights, were still on. Walking towards the kitchen, his smile dropped, as she wasn’t in there. Then looking towards the front, He saw that the firepit was, still on. He walked on out of the kitchen and headed towards the backyard. Once he, got there Chris turn off the fire pit and turned around to see Aria sleeping on the couch. Bending down, towards her, Chris then scooped her up, into his arms and went to walk back inside the house.

“Babe…” Aria asked, with sleep in her voice. Chris looked down, at her as he continued to walk towards the bedroom, “Yes, my love?” He asked, reaching down to kiss her forehead.

“What time is it?” She asked. Chris sighed, “It’s late honey. Let’s get some sleep and we can talk in the morning.” He told her.

“Oh, shit… I was going to make you some dinn- “Aria started.

“Shhh, it’s okay. I grabbed something, before I came home. I figured that you would be tired.” Chris told her, as he entered the bedroom. Chris then, gently placed her down, onto the bed, and helped her get tucked her in. Taking off his shirt, throwing it into the hamper, he went into his closet and changed into his jammies. Walking out, he went into the comfort of his bed. Just before he rolled over, Aria rolled over, to his side, wrapped her leg around him, and laid on his chest.

“Alright, good night babe.” He said, kissing the top of her head. He closed his eyes and went to bed.

**

The next morning, Aria woke up to Chris on the phone. Moaning, Aria rolled over, to Chris. Tucking her head, under his arm, and he looked down at her. Pulling her in closer, Aria snuggled against his chest and he placed a soft kiss on top of her head.

“Yea, that’s perfect. Noon, sound good. See you then…” Chris said, then he hung up. He then placed his phone, down on the coffee table and turned his attention, back to Aria.

“That was Scott, by the way. We are meeting him for lunch. Why don’t you invite Seohae?” Chris asked. Aria rubbed her eyes and snuggled even more, against Chris’s chest.

“What time, and where?” Aria said, with sleep still in her voice.

“Noon time. It’s at the French café, you and Scott go to.” Chris said. Aria, thought for a moment, “Oh, Le Café du Pain?” Aria said. Chris laughed.

“Yea, however, you pronounce it…” Chris said. Aria, then tried to reach over to get her phone. Laughing, Chris, with the longer arms, grabbed her phone and handed it to her.

“Here, you go shorty.” Chris said, placing the phone on top of her head. Aria looked up and gave him a pout.

“Don’t be mean, Mr. Evans….” Aria said taking the phone off of her head and began to dial Seohae’s number.

“Hellllllo?” Seohae said, on the other line. Aria cleared the sleep, out of her throat.

“Hi hun, it’s Aria. Listen… want to get together for lunch? My treat.” Aria asked.

“Of course. Where did you want to go?” Seohae asked.

“Oh, our usual spot… that we always go to, with Scott. Le Café du Pain. And is noon, time okay with you?” Aria asked.

“I’ll be there!” Seohae said. Both saying good-bye, Aria hung up and laid her head back down onto Chris’s yummy chest.

“Jesus, I’m more scared, of telling Scott, than my own parents…” Aria said, sitting up. She, then looked at the time, and sighed.

“Come on, if we need to be there at noon… we need to get out asses out of bed. Otherwise we are NOT going to make it there.” Aria said, raising an eyebrow at him. Chris laughed, and pulled her down, to him.

“Well, I think… we should- “Chris started, pulling her even closer, and placed his hand against her hips. Aria looked down and looked back at Chris.

“Babe….” Aria sang. Chris laughed and kissed her softly. Then pulling away, Chris placed his forehead against hers.

“Let’s go. Why don’t you get ready, and I will get the coffee ready?” Chris asked.

“Christopher Evans… remember? I’m carrying your child, I can’t have caffeine…” Aria said, sadly. Chris laughed.

“Okay, how about this? We go, to Pete’s Coffee and we get a decaf coffee?” Chris said.  Aria smiled and got out of bed, “Deal!” Aria said, as she went to the bathroom. Hearing the door close, Chris laughed, and got out of bed.

“I love her…” Chris said out loud, as he was getting out of bed, and with a big smile on his face. Then hearing, the bathroom door opens again, Chris turned around to see Aria’s head peeking out.

“I heard that Mr.  And I? Well, I do love him…” Aria said, blowing him a kiss, and closed the door again. Making Chris laugh harder.

**

Noon time

Le Café du Pain

Chris and Aria both sat, in front of Scott and Seohae. It was quiet for a moment, when Scott cleared his throat.

“So, what’s up? I take it, that both of you… need to tell us something?” Scott said. Aria nervously grabbed her water and took a big chug. Placing it down, Aria looked at Chris. He gave her a reassuring look. Aria nodded and faced Seohae and Scott.

“Well… um… Yea… the reason we both called you here, is because we both have something to tell you guys…” Aria said. Scott led at her, and sighed.

“And, what would that be? Because, we both know, that you guys are dating… No secret there.” Scott asked, raising an eyebrow. Chris sighed and rubbed the back of his head.

“Well, me and Aria- Me and Aria are expecting.” Chris said, nervously. Both Scott and Seohae looked at each other, and then back to Chris and Aria.

PAUSE

Scott and Seohae, both looked at each other and then looked back at the couple. Aria and Chris, looked at them, searching for answers.

“Um, are you shocked? Upset?” Chris asked, taking a seat back and crossed his arms across his chest. Scott cleared his throat.

“Well, um… what the fuck, do you think? Of course, I’m happy! I’m going to be an uncle!” Scott said, excitedly. Aria let out a sigh of relief. Then she turned her attention, towards Seohae.

“Seohae?” Aria asked. Seohae looked, both at the couple, and she smiled, “Of course, I’m happy! I’m going to be the best aunt there is!” Seohae said, also excitedly. “Oh, and I know… you’re going to kill me for this, but will you be telling your parents this?” Seohae asked. Aria closed her eyes and let out a loud moan.

For as long, as Aria can remember… she hasn’t spoken to her parents since she left for culinary school… 9 years ago. Each, time she thought about them, and her brothers leaves her, with a sour taste. Opening her eyes again, she looked at Chris and everyone else.

“No, I will not be telling them the news, because I would know the answer from them. Such supportive parents, I have.” Aria said, sarcastically. Chris placed his arm around her shoulders, pulled her in closer, to give her a kiss on her forehead.

**

After lunch, Aria excused herself to use the restroom. Chris gave her a quick peck on the lips and headed out, with the others. As she went to the bathroom, Aria looked at herself in the mirror, to freshen up. After reapplying her lipstick, and eyeliner, Aria walked out of the bathroom.

“Aria…?” A familiar voice came about. Frowning, Aria knew that voice. It was soft and gentle.

“Aria…?” She heard again, as she was about exit the café. Freezing, she finally recognized the voice. It’s been years, since she had heard that voice. Turning around, Aria knew who it was.

“Sebastian?” Aria responded. Then hearing a long gasp, Aria turned around again to see Scott and Seohae, with their eyes wide. And a confused boyfriend. Aria saw Scott grabbing Chris’s hand, but he yanked it away. Turning back around, Aria saw Sebastian walking towards her. As he got near her, Aria felt a hand on her arm, and pulled her back. She looked up, to see Chris standing next to her, with his face red and jaw tight. His other hand was in a fist.

“Oh…god….” Aria said, to herself. Then turning her attention, back to Sebastian, whom was standing in front of both of them.

“Seb- “Aria started, “Hi, I’m Chris… Chris Evans. I’m Aria’s boyfriend. And you are?” Chris asked, giving him a look over. Aria turned towards Chris. She could sense that, he was getting… well jealous. Rolling her eyes again, Aria sent him a death glare. And apparently, he didn’t even notice.

“Well, I’m Sebastian Stan. Nice to meet you?” Sebastian said, looking at Chris funny. Sebastian held out his hand for a shake. Aria, then slid her hand down, to Chris’s and gave him a gentle squeeze, signaling him to shake his hand. She heard him, sigh and held out his free hand, to shake his. Then Sebastian turned his attention back to Aria.

“Anyways, I don’t want to keep you. I just moved here, and its random… to see you here!” Sebastian said, smiling. Aria smiled back and started to walk backwards, taking Chris with her, “It was good to see you too! Welcome to LA!” Aria said, dragging Chris to the car. Once they arrived at her Subaru Crosstrex, Aria yanked her hand away, took her car keys out of her bag, and slammed them, against Chris’s chest.

“Drive…” Was all Aria said and turned to the passenger’s side of the car. Chris sighed, and went to the driver’s side. Pressing the alarm, they both got in. Chris started the car, and they were off.

  The car ride was a quiet one. Tension had, fill the air and Aria didn’t know, what to say. Sighing, she turned to Chris.

“Chris…?” Aria asked.

Silence.

Aria rolled her eyes, and sighed again, “Okay, you can stay silent… BUT I’m going to tell you anyways. Sebastian is someone, from the past. He’s an old friend of mine, nothing more, and nothing serious. And that’s the truth.” Aria said. Aria, then looked towards Chris. Seeing, that his jaw was still tense. She rolled her eyes and crossed her arms across her chest.

“God damnit… Chris! If you, don’t want to say something, then I’ll just go home. And you can sulk all you want, because I’m NOT going to deal with your pissy pants!” Aria said, as she uncrossed her arms and leaned her head against the window.

A few minutes later, Chris pulled up, into his driveway, parked the car, turning off the engine and turned towards Aria.

“Pissy pants? I’m a pissy pants? How IS IT THAT, IM A PISSY PANTS?” Chris asked, getting heated. Aria looked towards him and pursed her lips together.

“Because, there is NOTHING going on with us?! I haven’t seen him in, 3 years! He’s a friend from awhile back!  You are acting, like he’s someone, that wants to be with me! Oh, and the look you gave back there, and how you interrupted unannounced? YOU couldn’t be more jealous!” Aria said, crossing her arms again… against her chest. Closing her eyes, Aria took a deep breath and let it out. Trying to remain claim, for her sake and for the baby.

Chris huffed and raised his hands up in the air. Getting fed up, with his man bitchyness, Aria opened the passenger’s side of the car, got out, and slammed the car door shut.  As she walked up to the front door, Chris caught up with her and grabbed her by the hand.

“Babe, I’m sorry… can we talk about it?” Chris asked. Aria turned around, “And, if we do… then will you not, be a bitch about it and take it like a man?” Aria asked, raising an eyebrow. Chris stared at her, and Aria knew from the look of his face. Aria groaned, and stormed inside the house.

“OH, come on Aria!” Chris said, following her inside the house. Once, Chris entered the house, he saw Aria walking, out from the bedroom… changed into her jammies.

“Aria, I’m not- “Chris started, “Jealous? HAHAHAHAH! Yes, you are! The only, reason why you can’t see it, or admit it… because… YOU are in denial- “Aria started, “Oh, until you can get your fucking big boy pants on… DON’T TALK TO ME!” Aria said, walking out of the living room, and towards backyard.

**

Chris watched, as Aria walked out, towards the backyard. As the door, slammed shut Chris turned and kicked the stool, that was in front of him, “Fuck!” He yelled. Taking a step forward, then stopping… Chris stopped and took a seat on the couch.

“Just let her be… Just let her cool down, and it will be better in a few hours.” Chris said. Then, pulling his phone out, from his back-pocket Chris began looked for Scott’s number.

“Hey, it’s me. Call me, when you get this message. I need to talk to.” Chris. Hitting the send button. 2 seconds later, his phone beeped, and he picked up on the first ring.

“What’s up?” Scott asked. Chris rubbed his eyes.

“Tell me something? Who is Sebastian?” Chris asked. There was a big pause.

“She’s going to murder me for this, but I have to tell you. Sebastian Stans is man that Aria met, after she graduated from culinary school… 4 years ago. Aria was, working for a catering company at that time and he was hosting the party… for his mother’s birthday party. During this time, Aria was trying to move on from you. He ended up asking her on date. Of course, they go on a few dates… here and there. But, Aria realized, that she couldn’t get past you. She tried, believe me? She tried, really hard. So, they decided to be strictly friends.” Scott said. Chris sighed and rubbed the back of his head.

“Chris? You haven’t seen, her with another guy… haven’t you?” Scott asked, his brother. Chris sat up straight and frowned.

“What the fuck, are you talking about? Of-of course I have…” Chris muttered. Scott sighed.

“Hahaha, sure you have…But on, another note… just watch out. I have this feeling that Sebastian still likes her. I get that vibe from him. Annnnnnd do me a big favor?” Scott asked.

“What’s that?” Chris asked.

“Stop, being a baby… and snap out of it!” Scott said, nearly yelling. Chris frowned.

“What are you talking about?” Chris said, defensively. Scott once again, sighed.

“Being jealous. You need, learn and trust her. She loves you, VERY much. So much, that I want to puke.” Scott said. Chris laughed.

“Alright!” Chris said, still laughing.

“And, before we end this conversation… just talk to her… PROPERLY. No, yelling and whatnot. Remember, she’s carrying precious cargo.” Scott said. After he had hung up the phone, Chris looked towards the backyard. He saw Aria, sitting on the lawn couch, and looking out into the canyon. Turning away, Chris got up from the couch, headed towards the backyard, and towards Aria.

“Aria?” Chris asked, as he took a seat next to her. Silence. Chris sighed, “Aria, please? I would like to talk now.” He told her. He heard her sigh and the turned towards him.

“Do you have, your big boy pants on now?” Aria asked him. Chris stared at her, for a moment.

“Why, do you think that, I’m jealous? I’m just trying to understand this.” Chris asked. Aria looked at him.

“Chris, there isn’t anything between us. I did, go on a few dates with Sebastian… but that was it. It wasn’t anything serious. Babe, you are acting like… child. He’s someone from the past, I just don’t understand, why are you like this?” Aria said. He looked at her and she was in the verge of tears. She then turned her, back towards him. Chris sighed.

“You can’t trust me?” He repeated, to himself…

2 minutes later…

“Aww, shit…” Chris said, feeling guilty and it finally hit him. She was right. He was being childish, and he felt like dumb ass about it. Sighing again, Chris scooted closer to her. She had her back, facing him. Placing his arms around her and placed his chin onto her shoulders.

“Aria, I know you’re mad at me. But I am sorry. I shouldn’t have acted like that. I know, that he’s from the past, and I acted like he is someone… that- “Chris started, “Someone, that I might leave you for?” Aria finished for him. Chris sighed, and kissed her cheek.

“Yes, that’s what I meant.” Chris stated. Aria leaned back, against him. Chis kissed, the side of her head and placed another one on her cheek.

  Chris and Aria went back inside the house. It was almost dinner time, being that she is pregnant, Aria was craving some noodles and a Dr. Pepper.

“Just take a seat at the dinner table and I will have dinner ready.” Aria said, walking into the kitchen. Before, taking a seat at the dinning table, Chris went to the kitchen to get a beer. As, he entered he saw Aria, taking a bottle of Dr. Pepper out, from the fridge.

“Dr. Pepper huh? I thought, you hated soda?” Chris asked, walking behind her and reaching into the fridge to get his Corona. Aria looked at him, shot him a glare.

“Yea, I know… shocking isn’t? But it tastes good, though!” Aria said, taking a sip. Chris laughed, as he walked out of the kitchen and headed to the dinning room.

30 minutes later…

Chris sat down at the dinner table, drinking his second bottle of Corona. Aria then walked in, with 2 plates in her hands. The aroma of garlic and cream filled his nose and made him drool.

“Honey, that’s smells great.” Chris said, as she placed a bowl of Fettuccini Carbonara with Shrimp. Aria gave him a small smile. Before he, could dig in he took his hand, and placed it on top of hers. Aria placed her fork down and looked at Chris. Without, saying anything, Chris just simply smiled. Then lifting her hand and kissing it gently. Then letting, go of her hand… Chris picked up his fork and began to dig in.

“Is it to your liking?” Aria asked, taking a sip of her Dr. Pepper. Chris smiled, “Oh, it’s more than great. This is amazing!” Chris said, taking another fork full, of the carbonara. Aria laughed, while taking the napkin and began to wipe away some of the sauce from his mouth.

The next day, Aria was busy in the back of the bakery kitchen. It was almost lunch time, and she was getting the last of the breads, into the ovens. As she, placed a few trays, of steaming hot sourdough bread, onto the cooling rack Aria looked up, and to see Seohae walking towards her.

“Yes, Seohae?” Aria asked. Seohae leaded against the wall, next to the cooling rack. Seohae sighed.

“2 things. 1. You shouldn’t be lifting any of those trays Aria. Don’t you forget, that you have precious cargo, growing in that belly.” Seohae said, pointing at her belly.

“And 2. There is someone here, to see you.” Seohae said, not amused. Aria, frowned.

“What’s with the look? Is some reporter, finding out that… that I’m dating Chris Evans?” Aria asked, raising an eyebrow. Seohae sighed.

“Just go to the front of the store. You will find out.” Seohae told her. Aria looked at her and headed out of the kitchen and went to front. As she walked to the front of the store, Aria grabbed a bottle of water, from the kitchen fridge. Opening the bottle, Aria chugged the cool beverage, as she continued to walk towards the front. Upon, entering Aria’s eyes widened and dropped the bottle onto the floor.

“Hi, Aria…” The man said. Aria turned around and headed out to the main lobby.

“Sebastian? What are you doing here?” Aria said, as she walked up to him. She watched him take off his sunglasses. As he did, Aria’s eyes widened….

Remembering Donald O’Connor on his 92nd Birthday 🌹

A tribute to an amazing actor, dancer, singer, composer and choreographer .... a real entertainer🌟

Born on August 28, 1925 as Donald David Dixon Ronald O’Connor in Chicago, Illinois

Died on September 27, 2003 in Los Angeles/Woodland Hills, California

“I can picture things, like a painter would, though I’m not good at painting, either. But in terms of framing people, the basic idea for a routine, the continuity ... that I can do.”

A very long time ago, when I was a child, a handsome Irish man stole my heart away ❤! The first time I “met” him, he was perfectly dancing on the screen and putting so much joy and passion into it! Over the years, I’ve learned to love him more and more. At first, because of his personality, modesty, the sometimes painful beauty of imperfection he struggled and, finally, coped with in real life. Besides, he never forgot where he came from. This wonderful guy will always have a place in my heart!

Love you, Donald 💋 ... have fun while dancing among the stars🌟tonight! I’ll look out for shooting stars ...

“I grew up in vaudeville. All the hoofers used to get together in a drugstore down the street from the theater, or what-have-you, and if they knew a new step they would teach it to you. I learned hoofing steps that way. But going into ballet didn't come until I made those pictures with Kelly.” 

“It wasn't until I worked with Gene Kelly and Bob Alton [Robert Alton, choreographer for 'I Love Melvin' and 'Call Me Madam'] that I started to dance as, what I called, a total dancer . . . that I started dancing from the waist up, using my arms, my hands, and synchronisation in that way.” 

“My brothers and my mother were all dancers, outside of whatever else they did, like acrobats, high-wire, trapeze. I was born in a circus.”

“I’ve still got to find a place in life as a human being, not a machine … I’m no angel. I’m the same as everyone else … I’m subject to fever and headaches and bad temper just like anybody else.”

"I'm the guy who danced through life. It seems that no matter what I do, if I did MacBeth, they'd want me to do eight bars of "Tea For Two" just because it pleases. It's the kind of dancing I do - jumping around and having a good time. It's happy, gay, and pleasant. Dancing is so wonderful. Once they start the music, your whole day, if it's been rotten, seems to melt away. You get carried away in the tune that you're moving to. It's a marvelous catharsis ... to be able to get on top and tap dance."

“Sometimes I wish I’d been managed better ...”

~ Donald O’Connor ~

"Donald O'Connor was one of the most talented, gifted, personable people in our business."  

~ A. C. Lyles, producer for Paramount Pictures and a close friend of the O'Connor family ~

“The number was his own and nothing was imposed on him, except for the finish. I wanted him to do the trick that he had done as a little boy in vaudeville. So we got his brother over to rehearse him with a rope to get his confidence back and then to break through the wall at the end. The rest was all his, and it was unbelievable.”

~ Gene Kelly about Donald's immortal “Make ‘Em Laugh”. Besides, Gene named him respectfully “The O'Connor”. ~

“And for sheer joy there is the riotous "Make 'Em Laugh" song-and-dance interlude by Donald O'Connor in which the likeable young performer almost slays himself and the audience with his nimble footwork. The only complaint about O'Connor is that the more you see of him the more you want."

~ Excerpt from “The Hollywood Reporter’s” review of “Singin’ In The Rain”, published on March 12, 1952 ~

"I've always admired the dancing style of Donald O'Connor, and was lucky to meet him once during my tap dance training in New York in the mid 1990s. Such a lovable guy and his performance on stage ... even in his early seventies, he was still so amazing!”

~ Cristina, my wonderful tap coach 💋 and an excellent dancer herself ~

“THERE ARE SHORTCUTS TO HAPPINESS AND DANCING IS ONE OF THEM!”

~ Vicki Baum, Austrian writer and musician ~
