The right pair of shoes can change the feel of an outfit, and even change how a woman feels about herself

The therapy has been on and off, but I'll always go. I notice when I don't go, I start creating bad habits for myself. It's up to me to put in the effort. And I definitely watch The Secret a lot. That's part of my therapy: positive thinking. Really seeing yourself having everything you want, and feeling the emotion of having that. I did that about a Grammy. When The Secret came out, I was saying, "I'm going to win a Grammy." And I went there with my hypnosis and believing, really feeling what it would be like to have one.

I may not have the type of voice you like, but I can sing. You can’t take that away from me, ‘cause singing is a gift from God, and when people say I can’t sing, it’s kind of like insulting God.

Men scream and go crazy in the gym. I'm a silent workout partner, but when my adrenaline gets up, I talk trash.

I was covering up for the fact that I was doing drugs. It was a very weird lifestyle.

So many songs are just a wink to the audience, but people take them seriously. 'My Humps?' C'mon!

You just have to know what looks good on you. I say, focus on the body part that you feel most comfortable about. My legs don't change much so a good look for me is a short black dress with long sleeves. If you see me in that, you know I've gained a few pounds, which is fine.
