I've worked hard and I deserve everything I have. I never thought I'd have so much money. I just wanted to be financially stable and it embarrasses me and I don't feel comfortable talking or thinking about it. I don't know exactly how much I have but I don't buy much.

If I hadn't gone through some of the painful experiences in my life, I would not be me.

Diana Ross is a big inspiration to all of us. We all grew up watching everything about her - her mike placement, her grace, her style and her class.

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

I think it's healthy for a person to be nervous. It means you care.

I went to a high school for the performing arts and I lived and breathed music. It kept me focused; it kept me sane.

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