Music changes, and I'm gonna change right along with it.

Being a singer is a natural gift. It means I'm using to the highest degree possible the gift that god gave me to use. I'm happy with that.

I sing to the realists; people who accept it like it is.

Women have broken through the glass ceiling, and they're now more and more in the power seats.

Let's start with the church. As you know, it's my background, it's a natural setting for me and it's definitely my roots.

I saw the Supremes when they were still singing in little black skirts and white blouses.

I don't feel one's personal medical condition is everybody's business. It just isn't something you advertise, and it's not open to discussion.
