After Momma gave birth to twelve of us kids, we put her up on a pedestal. It was mostly to keep Daddy away from her.

I believe in my cosmetics line. There are plenty of charities for the homeless. Isn't it time someone helped the homely?

I know who I am, I know what I can and can't do. I know what I will and won't do. I know what I'm capable of and I don't agree to do things that I don't think I can pull off.

It's not easy being young. It's hard to know what to do.
