People are mean and hateful, angry - haters everywhere, stupid blogs.

Lately though I've been in love with myself and I've become my own best friend.

Meeting all the wonderful, new people and people appreciating my new music has been a really fun and blessed ride.

I rarely do things based on what everybody else is doing; I never have.

People are mean and hateful, angry - haters everywhere, stupid blogs.

I think when you write every song on your album - it's like having eleven or twelve children. It's hard to say I like this one song more or I like that one more. I love every song on the album. What's happening is that I'm hoping that everyone will be very satisfied. I think the single "Good Girl" will be adored by the people in the urban world and I think the "Best of Me" will be loved by people in the pop world.

Being scared is normal. My technique for erasing it is facing it. Be afraid and brave. Be nervous and courageous. The first few minutes of being scared is your test to see if you're really serious about reaching a goal. Push through anxiety and come out victorious. Fear is just a test. Honor the feeling. Know it's there. Know it's temporary. Face it to erase it.
