When you get to be nearly 60, you do take stock. You don't know what's around the corner.

I have a lot to be grateful for.

I live in a world of possibility and opportunity. You look for the light. There's darkness everywhere but you look for that spot of light and you work your way towards it, and you do what it takes to get there.

The word feminism needs to be taken back. It needs to be reclaimed in a way that is inclusive of men.

There is a big difference between what I do onstage and what I do in my private life. I don't put my living room on magazine pages.

I sang a lot as a little girl and entered competitions. I loved singing in choirs, but it was as I got older that I really found my voice.

If one woman is suffering, then we are all suffering, and we need to put a voice to that.
