If you're asking yourself why I have this success and you don't, don't be angry with me-stop and ask yourself what your issues are that are holding you back.

I don't want to work with anyone who has not sat down with me and has gotten to know me. I don't want you writing for who you think Jennifer is or the public persona of because that's not who I am. It's my shell, it's the brand, it's the celebrity, but it's not the person.

My focus has always been on talent over looks. This theme of people putting an emphasis on looks first has been a constant reminder throughout my life that most people don’t see things in the same way that I do.

Embrace it. Especially because of the lives we live, a lot of times other people have to care for [our kids] and you have to have that mommy time, Get your sleep!

When you hear my music and you feel the emotion, it's real. When you see me in a film and you see a tear, it's real.

You cannot just work out and then eat poorly and expect to lose weight. It doesn’t work that way.

If you’re not eating the right foods in the right amounts, all the exercise in the world won’t combat the caloric intake.
