Dancing in the dark
Article Abstract:
Dancers have to treat their body as an object, ensuring that it is always cared for, according to Michael Flatley. He first came to public attention as the star of Riverdance, which made Irish dancing popular very quickly. he then split from this production, and is now touring with his own production, 'Lord of the Dance,' which has been extremely popular. He believes that focus is very important, and for this reason has recently started treatment in a sensory-deprivation tank, which he feels allows all the negative energy and electricity to be removed from his body.

She's a friend of Norman Mailer and is the richest Englishwoman after the Queen. Her name is Barbara Taylor Bradford.'(Interview)
Article Abstract:
Novelist Barbara Taylor Bradford is thought to have a personal fortune of up to 625 million pounds sterling, benefiting from extensive worldwide sales and very large advances. She is frequently the subject of ridicule, with her critics accusing her of living in the soap opera-like world of her novels. However, she has certainly found a style which appeals to readers, and she is keen to distance herself from the image of a remote millionairess.
