When you stop trying to find the right man and start becoming the right woman, the right man will find his way to you.
I like to YouTube a lot, and try and find unknown singers.
I try and make all my songs sound different from each other while doing it in a way that's still me. It's a tricky thing to do.
Mariah, Renee, they really supported me. I think it's because they know how difficult it is to work in the arts, and it's so easy to veer from that path. Life is short, and it's important that we support each other.
I know it sounds weird, but how bad, how hard can dying be?
I can't spell or do grammar, but I'm smarter and more serious than people think. I'm no featherweight when it comes to digging deep and being involved. So many stars I know do so much. It's our duty to give back.
Women have to harness their power - its absolutely true. It's just learning not to take the first no. And if you can't go straight ahead, you go around the corner.
When I grew up, it was a time when women were just supposed to be cute and not have many opinions. My mother and her friends were quite different. They were all the most beautiful women you've ever seen, and they were very strong women.
My mother once said "If you don't pay attention to age, then it won't pay attention to you." And she says it, and it sounds nice, but I don't buy it.
I have a problem with religion that makes it so, like, 'We are the ones. We are the chosen ones.'
I keep coming back because I have no place else to go. What else would I do? I love to sing.
I think I am a product of my mother's sensibilities and my mother's values. There has been lots of battling and lots of love and it's never an easy road for us. But in the deepest recesses, I do have my mother's values.
I've been famous my entire life; I don't know any other way.
My passion lies with whatever I'm doing at the time... I only see what is front of me.
