I want a guy who takes charge, but lets me have my say once in a while. A good relationship is all about balance and chemistry.

While I wanted to be supportive of Kanye [west] on the phone call, you cannot 'approve' a song you haven't heard. Being falsely painted as a liar when I was never given the full story or played any part of the song is character assassination.

I wouldn't want to date a pushover who would let me make all the plans and have all the control.

(Talks about her grandmother Marjorie Finlay)"She was actually a recording star in Puerto Rico when my mom was growing up. My mom was always stuck sitting backstage somewhere or sitting in a front row, watching a performance her entire childhood. She thought that when her mom stopped performing she was relieved of those duties, but all I wanted to do was sing, ever since I was born, so she's always been backstage.

I keep going back to love when I write songs because I can't figure it out.

The words you'll most regret Are the ones that are left unsaid.

Wondering why we bother with love, if it never lasts.
