I say, 'Yeah, Taylor Swift.' I think she is a smart, beautiful girl. I think she's making all the right moves. She's got a good head on her shoulders. She's surrounded with wonderful people. Her songs are great. She keeps herself anchored. She knows who she is, and she's living and standing by that.

Leave something good in every day.

I always just thought if you see somebody without a smile, give'em yours!

My philosophy is simple: It's a down-home, common, horse-sense approach to things.

Mine is only one of the millions of hearts broken over the death of Whitney Houston. I will always be grateful and in awe of the wonderful performance she did on my song and I can truly say from the bottom of my heart, 'Whitney, I will always love you. You will be missed.'

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

Adjusting to the passage of time is a key to success and to life: just being able to roll with the punches.
