Believe in yourself. Have faith in yourself because no one else is going to.

When I date different guys, I just have to stay away - and not let myself fall. Because if I do, it's over.

In 1977, at age ten, I was cast on the TV sitcom 'Good Times.' My character was Penny, an abused child in desperate need of love. I really didn't want to do the show. I didn't want to be away from my family.

All those songs reflect all the people that live within me.

I was out once and had wine and I got sick to my stomach, and I vowed I would never drink again.

My brothers were gone on tour a lot, and I would miss them so much.

Another side to me is this very sexual being. When I look back on my life, it's always been there. It's been there since I was 10 years old, having the imagination that I had.
