Saturday morning, you knew what was cool by what was on 'Soul Train.'

We're gonna do it like George Foreman. We're gonna name all of our kids Mariah no matter if they're boys or girls. Mariah No. 1, Boy Mariah, Man Mariah, Tall Mariah. It's gonna be a house full of people named Mariah.

The people who truly love me and loved me before all of this stuff. You can't ever leave them behind.

A lot of people don't know the first time I was ever on national television I was a 'Soul Train' dancer.

We are already expected to be the goodie two shoes. I went through that during my junior high schools where I wasn't allowed to watch television. I wasn't allowed to listen to the radio.

I think my kids give mommy more attention than they give me.

If I have a talent, it's already been exploited! I've shown everything I can do to the public.
