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

I really want people to understand that nobody is perfect and that things happen in life beyond our control.

Today begins a new saga in my life which I expect to strengthen me and allow me time for reflection... I plan to write music while in prison, read and pray regularly and will come out a stronger, more confident woman.

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

I think women should always be respected. I'm not going to stand on the corner with a picket sign, but I'm going to support my ladies all the way. But I also understand the views of men as well.

Throughout my life, I have always lived with adversity and will continue to have faith and do good for my family, friends and fans.
