When people pay to see you live, they connect with you on a much deeper level than people who just buy your records.

I think people are a little bit intimidated by me. You know, I'm not exactly a wilting flower, so I think they're a little bit scared of me sometimes.

I think I've drawn from some of the most feminine women, like Jackie Kennedy. I am totally devastated that she's gone. She had it all.

It's up to couples, to individuals, to have a trust between each other.

The live show is different from the album. It's different every night depending on where I am and how many months have gone by since I last performed.

There are so few women in general who aren't completely threatened and confused by other women's success. It's very disappointing.

I'm somebody who can absorb a lot.
