I never could get my hair to do what I wanted it to do, so I started wearing the wigs. It all came from a very serious place. I wanted to look a certain way.

My mistakes are no worse than yours.

I think people take me as seriously as I want them to. They take me as seriously as I take myself - let's put it that way.

Even now, if I am thinking about spending a lot of money on clothing or furniture, I think 'I can't spend so much money on one thing; my poor old Daddy could have raised his family five years on that!'

My first job was singing on the Cas Walker radio show in Knoxville, Tennessee. I was about 10 years old and I thought it was big time.

I love watching keep-fit videos while munching chocolate chip cookies.

Actually, I hear a lot of rock music. My husband is a big rock fan.
