Until you value yourself enough and love yourself enough to know that, you can't really have a healthy relationship.

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.

I just think that the whole diva thing is a misrepresentation of who I am.

Throughout my career I've always felt like certain things come to me at the right time.

My hair and makeup people and stylists have changed over the years, but they all know sometimes I want to do Marilyn, and on another day I want to do Jackie O. Though sometimes I look back and have to say, "Wow! What were we thinking there?"

I'm bad at a ton of things. I'm bad at sitting still. I'm bad at basketball. My worst habit is that while people are talking, I will already be thinking three other things. It's rude. Sometimes if the person is very in tune and they notice, they're like "Where are you right now?"

If anyone can figure out how to balance my celebrity and my dual careers in music and film, it's me. I don't feel frightened; I feel challenged.
