Two records put me over the top with hip-hop. One of them was 'Planet Rock,' and the other had no lyrics - it was called 'Numbers,' from a group called Kraftwerk. Every kid in the 'hood in New York and New Jersey was popping, locking, and breaking to that record. It was the hottest track on the street at the time.

I was taught from a young age that many people would treat me as a second-class citizen because I was African-American and because I was female.

I am a strong woman with or without this other person, with or without this job, and with or without these tight pants.

I've loved car racing all my life. I watch NASCAR regularly, and drag racing because we have Raceway Park in New Jersey. I think I got it from my father.

I totally want like 18 babies.

I am not one to turn down macaroni and cheese, even late at night. I love Italian food. I love pasta... A refrigerator full of water and Gatorade? Honey, that's just not gonna happen.

I want every day to be life for the living, not just traipsing through it existing. I'm just interested in life and the world and exploring.
