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.

A peacock that rests on his feathers is just another turkey.

I'm very open with my business partners, just like I am with my husband.

I've never had a divorce, but I've seen so many of my friends, my sister, my family go through that stuff, so I try to write for the people that can't write about it. I take on their sorrow, so I'm able to kind of express it, or their joy.

People say I look so happy - and I say, 'That's the Botox.'

I was not a natural beauty, and I always wanted to be pretty. I just have such an outgoing personality that it's fitting that I would be overdone.

I know it's corny - but I love 'Jingle Bells!'
