You know the truth, you know who was sorting you out with your 40 dancers backstage to ensure full and proper access, who came to get you, you know who even made sure and negotiated for your current betting firm deal, you know even for you to perform who insisted and let you and your dancers onstage literally pulling you up. For the avoidance of doubt, you know it was me,”
