Oaren oer Astaire

Astaire yn Royal Wedding

• Frank Sinatra: Ik haw mar ien ding te sizzen oer Fred: hy is nei alle gedachten de bêste dûnser dy't ik ea sjoen haw yn myn jierren yn de showbusiness!
• Audrey Hepburn: Hy hie styl. Syn gewoantes wienen geregeld banaal, en noch slimmer, extreem elegant, omdat hy klasse hie. Oft hy tsjep wie? Ik tink dat hy sjarme hie, en sjarme is it moaiste fan de wrâld, is't net sa?
• Michael Jackson: Nimmen sil ea Mr. Astaire benei komme, mar ik bin noait stoppe mei besykjen him te imitearjen; it is syn styl, alle aspekten fan syn keunst: hy oefent en oefent oant er it yn de macht hat sa't hy it wol.
