You have to love what you do to want to do it everyday.

I'm the interpreter. I'm the one who takes your words and brings them to life. I was trained to sing and dance and laugh, and that's what I want to do.

I began to work the stage and get the audience into it. I also learned how to have fun out there. It is something I will never forget.

All I can do is leave it in God's hands and hope that my fans feel where I'm coming from.

I don't want to abandon one work for the other, and I don't think I need to sacrifice anything to put my all into either one of them.

I don't have to go back to Australia until next year to finish shooting [the "Matrix" sequels]. It actually works out great, because I have the time needed to support the album and tour. ... It's kind of hard juggling both of them, because it's double the workload. But the way I look at is I just let it work itself out, let it flow. If I don't think about it, it won't drive me crazy.

I think it's important to take a break, you know, from the public eye for a while, and give people a chance to miss you. I want longevity. I don't want to get out there and run myself ragged and spread myself thin.
