I think, when you're great, not everyone's going to give you your props, and you can't really worry about that. In my eyes, I'm still climbing. I'm still taking myself to the next levels in my career, and that's fine with me. When it's time for my rewards, I will get them.

I love spending time with my dog, my niece and my family. I'm very family-oriented.

It was a very emotional dinner... Everyone shared personal stories about her and gave her words of encouragement and inspiration. Everyone tried to remain positive.

I ain't acting when I'm on stage. That's why all the little love bugs who'll come and see me at Lovebox love me. They know it's the real me.

You can't really just make someone into something and it works all the time; that person has to be a natural.

I do not have too much sex. I hardly have any sex, O.K.? A lot of people get the wrong perception of me.

I love doing things people don't expect. The fans will be well fed.
