I was a very quiet kid. A really sweet kid, I might add.

It has taken me most of my adult life to come to terms with who I am. To do that, I had to break free of attitudes that brought me down.

Recording is more autobiographical than acting. It's me - either how I'm feeling then or once felt at some point in my life. It's all me.

To cut off the confusion and accept an answer just because it's too scary not to have an answer is a good way to get the wrong answer.

I still have certain goals that I want. Grammies... Other awards... an Oscar one day.

I like myself a lot more than I used to. I had a very difficult time in my twenties especially. It was hard for me to look in the mirror and find something that I liked about myself.

My first name ain't baby, it's Janet, Miss Jackson if you're nasty
