I feel like I've been locked up tight for a century, waiting for someone to release me.

A lot of people are afraid to face themselves, especially when something goes wrong. But that's important, because if something happens within a relationship, it could be how you're allowing someone else to treat you.

Actually, the challenge I’ve always had is being too thin, so I love that now I have a booty, and obviously I love showing my cleavage.

I was never into the boy crazy thing because I was very focused on my career.

I embraced being a pop artist, but I like doing it on my own terms, at my own pace.

I think you can really gauge my state of mind by listening to my albums.

Hurt me to see the pain across my mothers face, every time my father's fist would put her in her place.
