I'm over being a pop star. I don't wanna be a hot girl. I wanna be iconic.

We have to teach our girls that they can reach as high as humanly possible.

We all have special numbers in our lives, and 4 is that for me. It's the day I was born. My mother's birthday, and a lot of my friends' birthdays, are on the fourth; April 4 is my wedding date.

I grew up in a very nice house in Houston, went to private school all my life and I've never even been to the 'hood. Not that there's anything wrong with the 'hood.

I need to find a catchy new word for feminism, right? Like 'bootylicious.'

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

I don't feel like I have to please anyone. I feel free. I feel like I'm an adult. I'm grown. I can do what I want. I can say what I want. I can retire if I want. That's why I've worked hard.
