4 Quotes & Sayings By Wayne Newton
Wayne Newton is a stand-up comedian, singer, actor, and philanthropist. He is best known for his many Las Vegas shows. Born in New Mexico, he grew up in several small towns throughout the Southwest. His father was a professional boxer who also worked as a carnival barker, and his mother was a dance hall singer
As a child of the Depression, he learned the value of hard work at an early age. By the time he was 11 years old, Wayne's stepfather had taken over the family carnival. A talented musician with a fine voice, he began his singing career by singing on street corners for pennies.
At 15, Wayne hit the Las Vegas Strip as a singer for Jewelry Jim's Stardust Lounge. He became an instant success and went on to become one of the premier venues on the Strip. His first recording contract came when he was 18 years old and his first major television appearance came during his 20s, when he became known as "The Entertainer." His trademark "shaking his money maker" routine has made him one of America's most popular entertainers over the last five decades.
Today Wayne is also an accomplished artist whose paintings are displayed in museums around the world.
