For me, a diva is like the great opera singer, the great film star - out of reach, in their own world, with a real gift for invention: attention-demanding performance artists with a flamboyant, compelling sense of their own importance so special and inimitable it verges on the alien.

Grace Jones

Shinsuke Nakamura is probably one of the best wrestlers I've ever been in the ring with. He's very unorthodox. Everything he does is with knockout power. He's a guy who is very flamboyant, so don't let his Michael Jackson antics fool you. This guy is deadly.

A.J. Styles

To go from 'Generation Kill,' which is a very real, dark, gritty series, to 'True Blood,' which is flamboyant, crazy, way out there... I couldn't ask for two better jobs.

Alexander Skarsgard

The character in 'Arya' was so close to my real life persona. The director saw me once and felt I was the right guy for the role because my body language was so flamboyant. In real life, too, I am very peppy and full of life.

Allu Arjun

My kids stand out at competitions. They're products of me. And you can't come to Beyond Belief and have a flamboyant teacher like me and be basic.

Alyssa Edwards

I don't think you have to be flamboyant to be a great player.

Amari Cooper

I have to accept that my role is to gather the runs slowly. Kevin Pietersen is flamboyant, but that style doesn't work for me.

Andrew Strauss

My uncle, who was a little more flamboyant, always said the guy who dressed the best was Fred Astaire.

Andy Garcia

The Prime Minister has an absolute genius for putting flamboyant labels on empty luggage.

Aneurin Bevan

In the long revolt against inherited forms that has by now become the narrative of 20th-century poetry in English, no poet was more flamboyant or more recognizable in his iconoclasm than Cummings.

Billy Collins

I like to be flamboyant, play characters, wear make-up, play dress up. I was doing that since I was a kid.

Brendon Urie

I don't ever want to seem like I'm trying to command attention through the way I dress - but I have certainly been known to wear everything from a flamboyant suit to something very mellow and classic. I aim to just look and feel confident.

Cam Newton

Although I was a shy child, I was also a bit flamboyant.

Catherine Tate

I have this side of me that is a very European flamboyant; I won't say queenie, but it's borderline - could be perceived as homosexual.

Charlie Bewley

I grew up in a conservative small town, and the gay characters I saw on TV and in movies when I was growing up were all flamboyant and obnoxious and sometimes kind of annoying.

Chris Colfer

My problem is I don't have this incredible, hip image. I'm not some flamboyant or gorgeous-looking guy who's going to sell records based on his image.

Dan Hill

Although I behave in a quite reserved way in my personal life, give me a stage and I'll be as flamboyant as I can.

Danny Boyle

It's fun playing two roles. The roles provide a wonderful range of emotions. Stuart is childlike and sensitive. Adam is ruthless, outrageous. He's flamboyant. He does the unexpected.

David Canary

We thought that's the way you were supposed to be if you were in a rock 'n' roll band. Flamboyant.

David Johansen

Cogsworth, the character I did on 'Beauty and the Beast,' could be a bit flamboyant onscreen, because basically, he is a cartoon. But they didn't want Cogsworth to become Disney's gay character, because it got around a gay man was playing him.

David Ogden Stiers

I have straight married friends that other friends think are gay, and I have gay friends who don't throw that vibe at all. I know there's a full range out there, but I feel that gay men who aren't flamboyant are underrepresented on-screen.
