I'm no natural beauty. If I'm gonna have any looks at all, I'm gonna have to create them.

The freewill you have given, we have made a mockery of.

I think [music and acting], they are connected, all that stuff. It's your emotional self, is pretty much how you do it, I think, from whatever place you do it, whether you're acting or you're singing.

It's great at this stage in my life to still be in the running, that people appreciate you.

We can't all be stars; we can't all be leaders. We are all God's creatures, living life, and we have that God light in us and we're supposed to let it shine. And not everybody wants to be like me and stick their neck out to get up on stage and perform. There are those like me, but there are also those that are of a shyer nature. And they're smarter than most of us that are out there showing our asses.

Is forever longer than always?

I'll be wearing my high heels, even if I'm up to my knees in mud
