I want you to forget all your insecurities. I want you to reject anyone of anything that's ever made you feel like you don't belong or don't fit in or made you fell like you're not good enough or pretty enough or thin enough or can't sing well enough or dance well enough or write a song well enough or like you'll never win a Grammy or you'll never sell out Madison Square Garden, you just remember that you're a goddamn superstar and you were born this way!

Stand up for those who cannot stand up for themselves; its your responsibility

My concerts are about me being very private in public, but I'm very protective.

I just want to keep writing music.

Some of you will stay with me forever, but some of you ... WILL BETRAY ME.

I consider myself to have one of the greatest voices in the industry.

I'd rather people love me or hate me than have no opinion of me. Indifference is scary.
