Tonight, I would like to pay tribute to the greatest entertainer of all time, Mr. Elvis Presley. Elvis was Las Vegas. And if it wasn't for him, so many performers like myself would not have the chance to do what we do in this town. He really was the king.

There is no other love like a mother's love for her child.

I looked in the audience. There were no strangers. Everybody was singing and cheering and hugging. That was a beautiful picture to look at.

I have shared my whole life. My private and my show business life. It helps me actually to feel my songs and to go on with my dreams.

Don't make your career be your life. let it be your passion. Let it bring you pleasure. But don't let it become your identity. You are so much more valuable than that.

I have a wonderful husband. I have three amazing kids.

For me, singing was real life, not two plus two equals four.
