I still get nervous about singing. I drink tea with honey and lemon before every concert. And I need to have scented candles in all of my hotel rooms.

I'm a child of God. God is my mommy, my daddy. That's the only thing that'll keep my head up. If I don't remember who I am in him, I'm done.

I'm on my way to a place where I'd never dreamed I'd be, and that's perfection.

The important thing is to realize that no matter what people's opinions may be, they're only just that - people's opinions. You have to believe in your heart what you know to be true about yourself. And let that be that.

It's OK showing yourself some love.

Don't go a full day or night without washing your face. You have to get all the dirt and makeup out of your pores.

My God is a God who wants me to have things. He wants me to bling. He wants me to be the hottest thing on the block.
