Sinatra invited me once to his birthday party in L.A. I was young, and I felt great about it. But when I got there, the Rat Pack were all in the kitchen laughing their heads off.

I loved to party with the Rat Pack; they were so much fun.

Do be do be do.

When Sinatra said, 'For my money, Tony Bennett is the best singer I've ever heard,' it changed my career completely. He was my best friend, and I was his best friend... but I was never part of the Rat Pack.

It was at one of the parties at our house that The Rat Pack got started.

I am a thing of beauty.
