I think to give something a chance, to really get to know somebody, you want to do it out of the public eye.

Things don't always turn out exactly the way you want them to be and you feel disappointed. You are not always going to be the winner. That's when you have to stop and figure out why things happened the way they did and what you can do to change them.

I feel I want to grow as an actress and be better. I want to progress as a singer and songwriter, and produce movies and everything. So there'll be no time when I feel I've done it all.

My parents wanted me to be a lawyer. But I don't think I would have been very happy. I'd be in front of the jury singing.

Mommy. It's just the one thing you don't want to mess up.

It's like being in the middle of a tornado. It's like, whooooooosh, you know what I'm saying? It's like Dorothy-you wake up and find yourself in the land of Oz.

I feel like I haven't started yet. I'm looking forward to the ninth album, the thirtieth movie.
