Once I stopped dwelling on what I didn't have, on what I thought I was going to lose, and began to give freely, everything opened up for me. Everything began to flow into my life.

I'm very shy in a crowd.

Women are strong now. Women are dominating the charts, and women are doing it for themselves. We're kicking butt and taking no prisoners.

I'm so grounded, it's sad.

When you take your troubles to God, you may have them but they don't have you.

I want to be remembered as a woman who was fair and always gave 150 percent, no matter what I did.

I'm still standing up there tall and strong every night that I perform.
