My life was changed in one breath from God.

You've got to maintain your level of self-esteem through everything. You are who you are, and nobody will ever be able to take that from you if you don't let them

I want a private life, I truly do. I'm not just pretending to want one like lots of celebrities.

I haven't really been recording in the last several years. I haven't wanted to. And even though I had to deal with Sony and now I'm on Universal again, I will probably put out a new record soon.

Nobody wants you to stop, obviously because you're a moneymaking machine. But you have to make the decision and you have to move forward. So I took time off to have babies and do all that.

Ahhh, I love to love you baby, ahhh.

Don't try to change or tear your brother down, let him make his mistakes and he will come around.
