When I was writing the Destiny's Child songs, it was a big thing to be that young and taking control. And the label at the time didn't know that we were going to be that successful, so they gave us all control. And I got used to it.

It's all about attitude and feeling good about yourself and not looking like everybody on TV. You do not have to be small; you can have some junk in your trunk.

I never imagined I would be in a film with Steve Martin. I was a little star struck, because I grew up watching his movies.

Right now the tabloids are saying I'm pregnant, and they're naming the baby. It's hilarious. I don't know when I'll want to get married. I never pictured myself as a bride, but after my sister's wedding,I did start thinking about what kind of wedding I'd want. I don't think I want a big one.

I fell in love with music by listening to R&B, & it's the core of who I am.

And my husband and I have been together for 10 years, so I guess people felt a part of it and it makes me feel really good

I have learned that it is no one else’s job to take care of me but me.
