I am an actress first, a singer second.

I came from a very strict background, and didn't hear any Jamaican music when I was growing up.

I don't like people who hide things.

For some reason, I can inspire things that are in good taste, but then sometimes I can also inspire, like, wooooow. Some producers have this really sexual idea, and they're like, "Now I can do this, with her!" And I will just go: non, non, non. That's not me, it's you. You're projecting, man.

Disco was like the celebration of music through dance and my God! When you heard the music sometimes it was like, if you don't get up and dance, you aren't human!

Whatever one is creating, one has to stick to one's guns and just do it. That is all. Put your foot down and do not let your work be compromised.

I don't know what I'm going to be doing in two years or even in two weeks. I have to live for today.
