It feels real good to look at some of the guys who have played before me, then come in and break a record. But records are made to be broken.

For a man it's like if something goes on on-stage you'll have a drink at the bar and talk about it. With a female artist it's a big deal, you have a meeting and she's mad at you for the next couple of shows!

Rome didn't create an Empire by holding meetings - they did it by killing their enemies.

Women are emotional! And being an artist and a woman is probably more difficult because you have more stuff to overcome.

Nobody's perfect and I don't want to try and portray that but I'm genuinely doing the best I can out here; trying to support my family the best that I can, trying to make them proud and happy and everybody having the best life they can live. I'm trying to provide a better life for them than I had.

Love everybody. If they do you wrong or they brush you the wrong way it's OK, you don't have to hold on to that, you can still love them from afar; you don't have to really deal with them.
