I really don't know anything else because my brothers were famous when I was two years old. So I know nothing else, no other life.
I'm flattered that other artists consider me a role model.
I'm not trying to be malicious. The only thing that Rene actually did with Velvet Rope is the production of the opening of the show.
I do think kids should be kids. You have the rest of your life to be an adult.
I always write my music based on what is going on in my life at the time.
I kinda see everyone as competition. I'm a very competitive person. But I think that's good. Competition is great. And as long as it's friendly and not a malicious thing, then I think it's cool.
A lot of times I felt so alone. But I also thought there has to be other people that have experienced either what I have, or close to it.
You don't have to hold onto the pain to hold onto the memory.
I don't like to work out, and I get bored easily.
I love working with organizations. I love giving. I want to do more of that. You got to give back. I love helping people, especially children.
I'm just trying to get used to living on a fixed income, ... Now, it's going to get unfixed.
I'm a very competitive person. But I think that's good.
The pain is necessary. Sometimes pain is the teacher we require, a hidden gift of healing and hope.
Every body type is different - that's what makes you unique. What makes you special is you, and you are different from the next person.
