I have to be really honest: People who say they can't escape the paparazzi are full of sh*t. Let me just be the artist to throw everybody under the bus. I don't spend lots of money on houses or lots of cars, but I do spend money on security and they never find me.

I do not accept any less than someone just as real, as fabulous!

If you’re going through a dark time... don’t ever give up. You can always make your way back to the other end of that circle and find your happiness again.

Why spend your whole life trying to be somebody that you're not? It's so much more fun to be yourself **** what everybody says.

We are not actually equal - humanity - if we are not allowed to freely love one another.

I realized that it's my own fault that people take advantage of me. I should be around people who cherish my talents, my health, my time. I'm not a pawn for anyone's future business. I'm an artist. I deserve better than to be loyal to people who only believe in me because I make money.

Tonight love and hate met in St. Louis. And love outnumbered the hate, in poetic thousands. Hate left. But love stayed. + Together, we sang.
