I think it's really great when you stand up for something that you really believe, even if you get heat for it.

So consumed in all your doom, trying hard to fill the emptiness.

We take food for granted, but it isn't a luxury for many people.

I have six-year-old fans that weren't even around for 'Genie in a Bottle' or even 'Fighter.'

Independence was a big, big thing for me. I saw my voice as a way out - when my parents fought, I'd run up to my room, put on The Sound of Music, open the window and sing out. My voice was my escape.

I don't see anything wrong with being comfortable with my own skin.

I like to be as free as possible at all times.
