If there was some sort of mathematical equation for beauty, I don't know if I would be the algorithm. I've always been OK with that. I'm not a supermodel. That's not what I do. What I do is music. I want my fans to feel the way I do, to know what they have to offer is just as important, more important, than what's happening on the outside.

If I can be a leader, I will.

When I say to you, there is nobody like me, and there never was, that is a statement I want every woman to feel and make about themselves.

I'm not interested, Larry, in being a perfect, plastic pop singer that looks great in bikinis and is on the cover of every magazine. I'm more interested in helping my fans to love who they are, and helping them to reject prejudice and reject those things that they're taught from society to not like themselves, to feel like freaks, that they're not wanted.

I'm telling you a lie in a vicious effort that you will repeat my lie over and over until it becomes true

Dirty pony, I can't wait to hose you down.

My mother always wanted to give back.
