I think I can beat Usher on the dance floor.
Whether it be personal or musical, I just think Im a walking art piece, just a ball of creativity.
Well the first time I performed, my mom was like how she is now when sees me on stage – all red, smiling from ear to ear. So I don’t want to mess up, [be]cause she’s smiling. Seeing my mom happy is kind of like an overwhelming feeling.
I love attention. If I see a gang of girls? That makes me dance even more!
With fame, you can't trust everybody. You can't depend on them being there for you as a person. They will only be there because of what you've got you as a person. They will only be there because of what you've got and what you can bring to their life. It's not a relationship-it's a leech.
If you're sexy and you know it put your hands up in the air. Put your hands up in the air, girl, put your hands up.
It's Not My Job To Try To Persuade People To Love Me, It's Only To Try To Make Them Love The Music
To be the best you must beat the best.
My personal life is the same. At the end of the day, this is just a job. I love what I do, and it's a great job. But it's like my alter ego. There's Chris Brown the singer. And there's Christopher Brown, the down-home Tappahannock boy that plays video games and basketball and hangs out.
I always imagined I could be what I wanted to be.
I used to feel so shy speaking to girls. It was even worse when they were around their crew because they would diss me.
I love sneakers on a girl. I don't know why, but I guess it's because I'm still a young. I really like just like a girl who has style - a girl who does her own thing, is unique in what she's wearing and works what she's got.
The worst moment was when I was performing and I was about to sing, but I choked. I had a tickle in my throat and I started coughing, and I couldn't get the words out. It lasted for like thirty seconds, but I got over it, and luckily the crowd didn't seem to care.
My mom told me as a youngster I was always intellectual, like as far as being able to adapt fast and quick. But I had a fun childhood, went to regular school.
