My goal as an artist is to always be true to who I am and give my fans music they will enjoy for a lifetime

I'm very competitive but in a very nice way

Wearing a bikini on a magazine cover is my 41st birthday present to myself.

I think society, in general, is hard on women, period.

I think beauty comes from within. If you're happy and look at life in the best way you can, even when there are problems, it can make you beautiful on the outside.

I constantly work at maintaining balance. For me, my family comes first. If my family is taken care of, then everything else usually falls into place.

I think I'm a lot like other moms out there who feel like if we don't have the pecan pie we have every year, then it just won't be Christmas.
