One of my core values is to help redefine what it means to be a strong and beautiful woman in the music and fashion worlds and to empower the wonderful things that make us unique.

I want people to know about these visionary artists. I want people to know what they stand for and (that) they are representing something unique, something fresh. I am just so excited about their careers.

Silence is our enemy, and sound is our weapon.

I will not be a slave to my image, nor will I be a slave to anyone else's interpretations of me.

You are only as beautiful as the many beautiful things you do for others without expectation.

I know what I like; if you go to my closet, I have at least four of everything.

No matter if you wear a small amount of makeup, no makeup, or heavy makeup, as long as you feel beautiful internally and you're doing beautiful things for other people, and not just focusing on the exterior to make yourself happy, I think you should do what works for you. You should rock on.
