Reba McEntire came through town when I lived in Texas. She had this amazing theatrical show with, like, 13 different wardrobe changes. I was eight and I was like, Wow, I wanna do that!

It's wonderful to have money. But It's good that I know what the other side is like. I don't take for granted what I have now.

I never really had any friends my age. I've grown up in the adult world all my life.

What no woman or man needs is anyone telling them they are 'too fat' or 'too skinny.' That just adds to the many stereotypes out there about a person's weight.

Being where I'm at, standing in these shoes, it feels amazing. It feels like a weight has been lifted.

I'm not gonna apologize for who I am and what I've gone through.

I had some wonderful times in my 20s, but your 20s are hard.
