Take my picture Hollywood. I wanna be STAR

The statement is that I’m not one icon. I’m every icon. I’m an icon that is made out of all the colors on the palette at every time.

I don't like talking to celebrities.

I wanted to be a skinny little ballerina but I was a voluptuous little Italian girl whose dad had meatballs on the table every night.

I'm beautiful in my way 'cause God makes no mistakes. I'm on the right track baby, I was born this way.

This means more to me than any Grammy I could ever win ... It will take a village and an army, [some] countries and continents to make bullying a hate crime.

That is what fame is, isn't it? To get the world to fall in love with you.
