Juggling being a mom and an entertainer is a challenge I face every day.
My mom is one of those women... she don't take no mess. She is very vocal about what she wants and what she doesn't want.
My mom and I don't have a lot of photos of my early years.
Moms can be fresh, fly and young, and that's the kind of mom I want to be.
My dad's my nanny, so he spends a lot of time with me in L.A. when my mom's in Atlanta.
Being a mom to my son has taken precedence over everything in my life, and I think that's the order it should be... It's a great challenge that I don't think's ever gonna stop.
I think that when you become a mom... you don't really worry about the small stuff. I'm just way more centered. It makes you focus even more on what your goals are in life.
Being a mom, I am even more inspired to really help make a difference. I can't imagine what it would be like if my child didn't have a meal to eat.
Being a mom has affected me in the greatest way possible - and in a necessary way. Having my son has helped me to be grounded, and I feel like with a child you have to really think about things all the way through.
I think cool moments like winning a Grammy deserve a nice little party where you really soak it in and not have to work and stuff. I do remember throwing a party on that Grammy night, but it was work.
Being a mom, I can't imagine my child not having a meal. That's hard to digest.
I tell myself that water is my medicine and that to stay well, I have to drink a gallon of it every day.
I'm a tomboy at heart. I always like to say that I'm an ordinary girl doing extraordinary things.
I think it's so fun when I get to work with women writers in particular because we really understand the core story or foundation as women. That's so important to me that the authenticity is there, you know, from the place that I speak from for my women. Having other females with me helps me dig deeper.
