It's not easy that everything you do, everybody has to come in and critique it and give their opinion. Sometimes it does help me and sometimes it hurts me as a person. That's life. I have feelings.
Everyday is a holiday with me.
I'm not great at putting my hair into a bun, but I'll do it if I have to.
I love all holiday music. My two favorites would probably be Donny Hathaway's "This Christmas" and Nat King Cole's "The Christmas Song." They epitomize Christmas for me. Those two recordings will never be touched. That's why I've never redone them.

True diva could not live without smart remark every now and then, a good sip of water.
The international music scene has grown so much, and America is sort of following that.
I know I can be diva-ish sometimes, but I have to be in control. The nature of my life, the nature of what I do, is divadom, it really is.
My heart has never been broken, I've never broken anyone else's.
Cause there's a light in me that shines brightly. They can try, but they can't take that away from me.
Losing my mind From this hollow in my heart
I always sang and I always wrote...it's just having that ambition. You really can't let go of your dreams.
You can't live with regrets. It's about the journey
If you believe within your soul, just hold on tight and don't let go! You can make it, make it happen
