I want to find things that challenge me.

You cannot live to please everyone else. You have to edify, educate and fulfill your own dreams and destiny, and hope that whatever your art is that you're putting out there, if it's received, great, I respect you for receiving it. If it's not received, great, I respect you for not.

Even in my music, I am always searching for big, universal things - ways that you can sort of reach outside the norm of what you are doing.

I just know that the one thing that we all have in common is challenges. No one lives a challenge free life.

Christian Louboutin, I love you, but honey, please! But when you have this much weight, you've got to give us a little platform. Sorry! The shoes are stunning though. An ounce of pain, it's worth it.

You know, bigotry isn't relevant to just the South. It never was. But I'm very grateful that I don't know what it's like from experience.

There are moments where you stop living, if you stop changing, and if you stop seeking growth of some sort.
