I'm an ocean, because I'm really deep. If you search deep enough you can find rare exotic treasures.

You are beautiful in every single way. Words can't bring you down.

I remember watching the Grammys and looking at the performances and crying to my mom, saying how much I wanted to be there.

I hate working out - I have to mentally push myself through it. I can get very whiny, saying things like, 'I can't do it!'

The real beauty - inside, it comes from the heart, where love lives. If not, even the most common facial features can not hide the emptiness, which eventually pushes people.

Becoming a mother has helped me to realize who I am aside from my career.

There have been a lot of roles and scripts that have come my way but nothing that really inspired me or intrigued me like when "Burlesque" showed up at my door. Just the whole concept of burlesque, I've always been fascinated with it. I've always collected so many books about burlesque. I've been intrigued by the time that it's set in, in the 20's, 30's, 40's and so I knew it was a no brainer for me to be a part of once I met with the team.
