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

I'm a very independent woman.

The only album that I listen to upon recording a new one is my 'Cry' album, because sonically, I think it's my best album to date. But other than that, I've never listened to my records, ever.

When I wake up in a bad mood, I try not to stay in one. Learn to make the best of what you have.

I didn't realize that everyone was so attracted to my hair. I thought, well what about my music?

Having been adopted, I really have a strong sense- a necessity almost- for stability, a foundation where my family is concerned. [Success] would be meaningless without anyone to share it with.

Reba is very, very close to everyone around her. She's a classy lady.
