Happiness comes from you. No one else can make you happy. You make you happy.

Love is something that never goes out of style. It's something everybody experiences, and if they are not in love, people usually want to feel that.

That's why I called it Dangerously In Love. It's basically all of the steps in a relationship from when you first meet a guy to realizing you're interested to dancing with him the first night to thinking that you're in love to realizing that you're now a little open to making love to breaking up to having to love yourself after the breakup. All of that. A celebration of love.

I'm over being a pop star. I don't wanna be a hot girl. I wanna be iconic. And I feel like I've accomplished a lot. I feel like I'm highly respected, which is more important than any award or any amount of records. And I feel like there comes a point when being a pop star is not enough.

Independnce comes from you knowing who you are and you being happy with yourself.

When you really don't like a guy, they're all over you, and as soon as you act like you like them, they're no longer interested.

I love my husband, but it is nothing like a conversation with a woman that understands you. I grow so much from those conversations.
