I like hip-hop music, but some of the lyrics make me want to cry.
I want to be remembered as a woman who was fair and always gave 150 percent, no matter what I did.
I've never been with a woman, so I guess I'm straight, OK? But I'm straight enough to know the difference between right and wrong. I am straight enough to know that if you want to marry whoever you want to marry, you should be able to marry whoever you want to marry
In matters of the heart it is always better to want something you don't have than to have something you don't want.
I have spoken to a friend of mine. Actually, she was my background singer and she lives in New Orleans. I gave her a home today. I told her to move in with me because everything she ever thought of is gone.
Carlos Santana and I talked about that. So it'll be us with the girls. We all wanna do something. We're gonna plan. It's spontaneous but it has to be done.
Every time I come to Cincinnati, it's hot.
I've never ever given you less than I can give. I'm gonna give you everything you deserve.
I've never been this embarrassed in my life. It's the worst show I've ever done in my life.
You've got to know business before you go to show business.
I was very shy. I'm still shy.
I'm no different than you.
I'm so grounded, it's sad.
