New York. It's home to opera, Broadway, museums, the ballet and orchestra - everything that I love. The most real people in the world live there.

The lasting legacy of the Cooter Smash is that I'm the first to know when it's going to rain. That's right. I both sing and predict the weather with my hoo hoo.

A nice pair of Jimmy Choos never hurt anyone.

I think it's important to remember that Christianity was based in love and tolerance and forgiveness and acceptance.

You've got to find ways to breathe while you're dancing so that when it comes time for you to stop and sing again, you have it. To prepare, I do a lot of aerobic activity. Many times at the gym, people will look at me because I'll be on the treadmill humming.

Apples, grapes... any kind of fruit gives me the energy I need to get through my busy day.
