I listen to my old records and I think, 'How did I ever get on the radio?'

I used to always sit in church looking out the windows at the boys, wondering if I could make an excuse to go out and, you know, go to the bathroom because all the outdoor toilets. But anyhow, I was only going out to see the boys.

I describe my look as a blend of mother goose, cinderella, and the local hooker!

I love the accomplishments and the awards that I've received through the years. But I've always worked more for the rewards than the awards. I've always counted my blessings before I've counted my money. I'm glad that new dreams come to me everyday.

I just always knew I was going to be a star. I was always going to be rich so I could buy things for Mommy and Daddy, so that I could buy them a big house and we could have things.

Every day I pray about all I do.

The hardest exercise for most of us fat people is that one where we push our chairback from the dinner table.
