I love theatrics and have a huge imagination: Why would I want to sit onstage and sing a bunch of ballads back-to-back?

Growing up with the childhood that I had, I learned to never let a man make me feel helpless, and it also embedded a deep need in me to always stick up for women.

He's the one guy I can credit for making me think about marriage in a whole new light, because every guy I've had in my life has either lied or cheated me financially or business-wise, or taken advantaged of me.

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.

It's a big responsibility to help someone express themselves as an artist.

After all you've put me through, you would think I despise you, but in the end I want to thank you because you made me that much stronger.

In school that used to happen a lot: they'd get me to sing and then they'd hate me for it.
