My mother and I are more than best friends; we are partners in crime. After she and my father, Quincy Jones, separated when I was 10 years old, my sister, Kidada, who was 12, went to live with our dad, and I stayed with my mother.

I love romantic comedies. I have a deep respect for them. I think they're really difficult to write and write well.

Good rom-coms have some reflection of the way things are, the sign of the times.

My activities tend to revolve around crossword puzzles, reading and playing piano and games with my friends.

Everything is about consumerism. If there's money to be made, there will be an audience and people will feel empowered and I truly believe that women haven't fully tapped into their potential as a market.

I think anybody who has had a long relationship and has had a really hard time letting go, wants to feel like it's not all for naught, and it's meaningful, because it makes you who you are.

There's a definite responsibility that comes with being famous. You shouldn't be able to just dress up and look pretty.
