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

Being a mom changes your life. It actually has made me become more comfortable in my own skin and my own body because it's such a growth and a learning lesson.

I've gone through a really hard divorce, and anyone who has gone through a divorce will speak about how hard the journey is from start to finish. It's a life-uprooting time.

I don't want to be just a straight pop singer. I'm a vocalist and that's what I want to be seen as in the long run.

I still have my eyes on the prize: I want to be that old lady onstage shaking her hips and singing her greatest hits.

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

There's a witch under this hair. The red lips are - I don't want to call them "armor," but they're the clothes of my character, and I'm in the business of entertainment. Wearing red lipstick helps get me into that world.
