I have surrounded myself with very smart people.

They say somebody's 'street smart.' I feel like, if I got intelligence, it's just a country smart.

If you like good ol' fashion Southern soul food then, yes, I am a good cook! My specialty is chicken dumplings and poke salad.

I used to sing songs and write with my uncle, Bill Owens.

I have been asked to pose for Penthouse on my hundredth birthday. Everybody is going to be sorry.

There's a lot of women now with a whole lot of style but they are not necessarily song stylists. Some of their style is a lot like me and a lot of people sound a lot alike - you can't tell them apart.

My favorite movies of all times is 'Doctor Zhivago,' and I love 'Gone With the Wind.' I'd love to play some Southern belle or something where I owned a plantation.
