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

Nobody wants to hear celebrity complain

I like to cook Puerto Rican food. That's what I grew up on: rice, beans, meat, some Italian-American food. I know my way around the kitchen.

Whenever it feels uncomfortable to tell the truth, that's often the most important time to tell it.

I am a lover. And with my kids I am even softer. I realize with my son, I have to sometimes be tough, especially now when he's pushing boundaries. With my daughter, I can get a little stern with her and she pretty much will listen.

I was always very comfortable with who I was. Confident. I’ve never looked at [my body] in a negative way.

This film [the Cell] certainly is not meant for the girls who sing along with my songs.
