I can't just make a song people can dance in a club to... it still has to be real.

As a kid, I was in love with Michael Jackson, and I just knew I was going to marry him someday.

When you tell your truth, you are coming from a real place, so you are automatically a leader.

...I would be a liar and my fans would hate me if I said to them, 'Oh, we're perfect and everything is great.' We have situations just like everyone else. We're not out in public trying to kill each other, but it's real. We love each other.

I decided to start my own label because so many people with talent come to me wanting to know how they can get in the music business.

As a kid, I dreamed about being onstage.

I'm hoping that my entrepreneurial side will have me at a place where I don't have to do anything. That's what I'm striving for.
