You can't really control what people think. You can't really worry about what they think, and attitude is really the one to have.

I'm a mother! So I am more conscious of what I wear. Because when I was younger I would wear just about anything - and I would always show my belly. I mean, I still do that now when I perform, but it's just done more in a tasteful manner.

I go through life like a Karate Kid.

Whereas before I was a young, blonde girl who would do what she was told. I know who I am as a person and I'm getting damn strong.

I'm usually all about the tight jeans and little T-shirt, but sometimes I want to put on a black, sequined dress and be a freaking girl

Bottom line: If you love yourself, it will all work out.

Everyone now, they look back and they're like, "What happened to your sweet image that you used to be?" And I'm like, then when you came out you thought I was too provocative. It's like you can never win. No matter what you do, at the end of the day you can't please everybody, you know. I'm not here to please.
