Sometimes people take it for granted that they had success, especially nowadays when you have instant stardom. A lot of people feel entitlement and nobody is entitled to anything.

I went from an innocent child to a national television star. My career took on a life of its own.

Celebrity? Oh man, I just thought it was a ride that was going to last forever and when it stopped, I didn't know what to do.

I love cranberry juice, but I'm not a coffee drinker - as a Mormon, I avoid caffeine.

You always draw from your roots. I'm influenced by everything I hear and see, and that includes music today, but obviously I go back to my early influences: Stevie Wonder, Parliament, Earth, Wind & Fire, Ohio Players, Average White Band. Those kind of artists are what I look to. When I hear that stuff on the radio, I turn it up!

Our father taught us such a work ethic that if there's something worth doing, it's worth doing well.
