When I grew up, it was a time when women were just supposed to be cute and not have many opinions. My mother and her friends were quite different. They were all the most beautiful women you've ever seen, and they were very strong women.
My mother once said "If you don't pay attention to age, then it won't pay attention to you." And she says it, and it sounds nice, but I don't buy it.
I have a problem with religion that makes it so, like, 'We are the ones. We are the chosen ones.'
I keep coming back because I have no place else to go. What else would I do? I love to sing.
I think I am a product of my mother's sensibilities and my mother's values. There has been lots of battling and lots of love and it's never an easy road for us. But in the deepest recesses, I do have my mother's values.
I've been famous my entire life; I don't know any other way.
My passion lies with whatever I'm doing at the time... I only see what is front of me.
I'm amusing and crazy on Twitter. I talk about important things, stupid things.
I wish that I did the things that I really believe in, because when I do, my life goes much smoother.
The road is a nasty place and lonely.
In this business it takes time to be really good - and by that time, you're obsolete.
Mariah, Renee, they really supported me. I think it's because they know how difficult it is to work in the arts, and it's so easy to veer from that path. Life is short, and it's important that we support each other.
This is not a biography, ... It's just stories, you know. And the ones I chose to leave out need a lot more detail.
