You can't live with regrets. It's about the journey

I still get nervous sometimes before performing.

My father identified as a black man. No one asked him because he was clearly black. But people always ask me. If we were together, people would look at us in a really strange way. It sucked. As a little girl I had blond hair and they'd look at me, look at him, and be disgusted.

Whenever I watch TV and see those poor starving kids all over the world, I can't help but cry. I mean I'd love to be skinny like that but not with all those flies and death and stuff.

I just want one day off when I can go swimming and eat ice cream and look at rainbows.

Being a mother is probably the hardest job in the world. I feel like, in a lot of ways, children come into the world to teach us.

I understand people want to hold on to their roots.
