Liberace

When filming a television special in England, he made a point of learning the names of all the production crew. Years later when he returned to make another show, he was able to greet every crew member by name.
As reported in the June 2001 issue "A&E Biography" Magazine, he was so vain about his baldness that he would go to bed wearing one of his hairpieces, even on hot nights. According to the same article, he once almost refused to have a facelift when the doctor asked him to take his toupee off.
He owned a 1961 Rolls-Royce Phantom V. This car resides in the Liberace Museum in Las Vegas (NV), and of only seven built by coachbuilder James Young that year, it is the only one with left-hand drive (the steering wheel on the American side), making it even more rare. The entire car is covered with small mirrored tiles, and with classic horses etched into them along the running boards. When he first got the car, it had a black and gray paint job. He also had a 1950s Rolls-Royce convertible painted with an American flag design.
Was parodied in several Bugs Bunny cartoons.
The episodes of the television series Batman (1966) on which he guest-starred as Chandel/Harry, The Devil's Fingers (1966) and The Dead Ringers (1966), were the highest-rated in the series' history. By all accounts he got along well with the cast and crew and would play impromptu recitals at the end of each day's filming.

[to a critic who negatively reviewed one of his performances] Your review hurt me! I cried all the way to the bank!
Too many young performers have forgotten that the most important part of show business is not the second word, it's the first. Without the show there's no business.
[commenting on one of more famous lines] You know that bank I cried all the way to? I bought it!
[from his 1973 autobiography] Youthfulness, I guess, will always remain the thing that fans want to see in their favorite performers. They don't like to see them grow old. Possibly because it reminds them that the same thing is happening to them.
[on stage at one of his shows] I didn't get dressed like this to go unnoticed.
