Being beautiful is not so fun when you're in a business with all men.

I've worked since I was a five-year-old to be a performer.

I'm from New York. I will kill to get what I need.

I believe in a glamorous life, and I live a glamorous life.

I decided to pursue music, so I dropped out of school and I told my parents I didn't want any money from them. I got three jobs and I just hit the ground running.

I realized my father's sister Joanne, who died at 19 had instilled her spirit in me.

Pop music will never be low brow.
