Jun 7, 2008 - It is a wonder how two people could dislike each other as Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire did, and produce such quality dancing and showmanship.

Jul 14, 2008 - They didn't dislike each other, that's just a silly myth. Like other great partnerships, they just didn't socialise together after working long hours together all day - would you? They both said in later interviews they were very fond of each other.
