I do not think I reinvent myself. Wearing my hair differently or changing my style of dress is playing dress-up. I don't take it too seriously.

when you feel like hope is gone, look inside you and be strong and you'll finally see the truth- that hero lies in you.

I can do a reddish-brown or brown lip, but not a bright red. I just don't look good in it. Over the years you learn certain things that don't look good on you, and that's one of them for me.

When I saw you, when I saw you I could not breathe, I fell so deep. When I saw you, when I saw you I'd never be, I'd never be the same.

I hope to be around past the 90's. I don't want to just be categorized as one of this era. My goal is to have a career that stands.

My heart has never been broken, I've never broken anyone else's.

We've all been influenced by other people...If Minnie Riperton never existed, would I have even thought of singing in that (upper) register? I doubt it.
