New Year's Eve was always a big occasion at home with the family. Every year we would get the karaoke machine out and I'd entertain everyone, even as a young kid. -- Olly Murs
My father is a Japanese-American and my mother is a Caucasian. So obviously, New Year's Day is big for our family, you know, oshogatsu. We had obon festivals every year. All those things. -- Scott Fujita
I am not very comfortable about dancing at weddings and New Year parties. Maybe it's because of the way I have been brought up; I wouldn't want my family to feel that cringe moment. Dance is an art for me. -- Deepika Padukone
I live in a high rise with my family part of the year in New York and I don't know three quarters of the people in the building. We live in the same square-footage and I wouldn't know who they were. -- Dan Aykroyd

I was born in New York City. But my family moved when I was still an infant. Except for a year and half when we lived in Youngstown, Ohio, I grew up in small towns in Pennsylvania. I graduated from high school in Farrell, Pennsylvania. -- E. L. Konigsburg
I was born in Patterson, New Jersey, and raised pretty much all around the country.

Michael Straczynski
My family moved from California to New Jersey in the beginning of my sophomore year of high school.

I didn't feel confident enough to share a seat at just anyone's table. -- Camille Guaty
I got to Broadway a year after I came to New York. I starred in 'Butterflies Are Free' and got a Tony for it. Right out of the gate. Maybe that's why I wasn't very gracious about it. I wasn't driven. And right after 'Butterflies Are Free', I got married and then started a family. I always wanted that. -- Blythe Danner
I was born on the other side of the tracks, in public housing in Brooklyn, New York. My dad never made more than $20,000 a year, and I grew up in a family that lost health insurance.

Take a stand, America! You deserve better. Resolve to live life vibrantly by looking to family, faith, and freedom in this new year! -- Sarah Palin
