On her son again: I smell his feet; they have a scent that's a bit like vinegar.
The first song that I ever recorded was written by my mother.
On her son Rene: Oh my God, when he's 20 years old what's going to happen to me? I'm gonna marry him.
I'm so centered in feeling great about me that I can give great things to my son and my husband and my family.
I have shared my whole life. My private and my show business life. It helps me actually to feel my songs and to go on with my dreams.
I only record songs that touch me in some way, ones that I can relate to.
Every song will be a video. Its going to be very spectacular.
There are so many different ways to say "I love you" and to talk about love in the songs.
I'm not thinking with my head, I'm talking with my heart.
Oh, they're stealing 20 pair of jeans or they're stealing television sets. Who cares? They're not going to go too far with it. Maybe those people are so poor, some of the people who do that they're so poor they've never touched anything in their lives. Let them touch those things for once.
I wanted to partner with a beauty company that would develop a product in a line with my values. Like creating music, it is important that beauty products appeal to both one's senses and emotions.
There's people still there, waiting to be rescued, and for me it's not acceptable.
We need to serve our country, and be there right now to rescue the rest of the people. We need the cash, we need the blood, we need the support, right now we need the prayers.
This thing has really upset me, ... Since that story came out, everyone has been congratulating me, and I have to keep telling them that it's not true. I only wish it was true.
