I'm encouraging other people, whether they're professionals or not, to use their creativity to express themselves, to get a conversation going, to get the party started, really.

New York wasn't everything I thought it would be. It did not welcome me with open arms. The first year, I was held up at gunpoint. Raped on the roof of a building I was dragged up to with a knife in my back, and had my apartment broken into three times. I don't know why; I had nothing of value after they took my radio the first time.

Ever since my daughter was born I feel the fleetingness of time. And I don't want to waste it on getting the perfect lip color.

You took a pretty picture and you smashed it into bits, sank me into blackness and you sealed it with a kiss.

When my world seems to crumble all around, and foolish people try to bring me down, I just think of your smile face, and I'm flying.

I wouldn't live in Chicago cause it's too conservative, aside for the fact that Oprah Winfrey lives there.

The definition of S & M is letting someone hurt you that you know would never hurt you.
