It's sad that a lot of identities are lost and a lot of careers are lost because there's sort of a clone thing going on.

That's the message I want to give to every up-and-coming artist: Do everything that is going to help you later. If you clone somebody else, that's all they're gonna keep wanting from you.

I'm searching for a real love.

I remember a time when all my fans were crying and sad and going through hell. Now, we're trying to uplift each other and accept ourselves for who we are, even if nobody else does.

It's up to us to choose whether we win or lose...and I choose to win.

I don't know what kind of God the rest of y'all are serving, but the God I serve says, 'Mary, you need to be the hottest thing this year, and I'm gonna make sure you're doing that.'

Larry David makes me laugh.
