I felt very maternal around eight months. And I thought I couldn't become any more until I saw the baby... But it happened during my labor because I had a very strong connection with my child. I felt like when I was having contractions, I envisioned my child pushing through a very heavy door. And I imagined this tiny infant doing all the work, so I couldn't think about my own pain... We were talking. I know it sounds crazy, but I felt a communication.

You can't put your finger on who I am. I can't put my finger on who I am.

A true diva is graceful, and talented, and strong, and fearless and brave and someone with humility.

It's easy to hear the voices of others and often very difficult to hear your own. Every person you meet is going to want something different from you. The question is: what do you want for yourself?

Right now, after giving birth, I really understand the power of my body. I just feel my body means something completely different.

I am really proud that I am one of the artists that has the opportunity to be on magazine covers and to be in the movies.

I know you want me back. It's time to face the facts. That I'm the one that's got away. Lord knows that it would take another place, another time, another world, another life. Thank God I found the good in goodbye.
