Basically, I started singing when I started talking. Music has just been my saving grace my whole life.

To quote Frank Sinatra, "Regrets, I've had a few / But then again, too few to mention."

Stay triumphant, keep on living. Stay on your toes, get off the ropes. Don't let 'em ever count you out.

I can't wear flat shoes. My feet repel them.

I don't want a boyfriend just for the sake of it. I don't trust most people out there. There's too much at risk and I don't need to be a notch on somebody's bedpost. I'll flirt with you all night long, but then it's buh, bye!

I try not to be a jerk. I really do. I try to be nice and cordial.

I want to collaborate with me 'cause I've done so many collaborations that after a certain point unless you're really working with a certain caliber of an artist, there's no point [to collaborate].
