deal life older people realise wonderful
People think my life has been tough, but I think has been a wonderful journey. The older you get, the more you realise it's not what happens, but how you deal with it.
people period proud visions
People have visions of choristers in gowns, but that was never my experience. I'm very proud of that period in my life.
country white people
I don't have a problem with being black in a white country or being with my people.
long people stopping
As long as I have people's attention, I can't stop. You can't put the public on hold, because they might not be there when you get back. I have a pathological fear of stopping.
memories worry people
I didn't worry about it because I kind of felt I left a good message and memory with the people in terms of my work, and I always felt with a good record, I could always come back.
people traffic shock
Delhi came as a shock. There were so many people, and oh, the traffic.
want-something clothes people
I want to tell people how to live spiritually. After you've bought all your houses and your clothes, you want something bigger.
people suffering india
On the third day in India, I realized people were not suffering as much as I thought.
enjoyable
It was a very enjoyable part of my life,
age certain issue
Age is no issue to me. I think 50 is the new 30 and 70 is the new 50. There are no rules that say you have to dress a certain way or be a certain way.
acting hated pictures sexy soon time tina work
I don't hate myself anymore. I used to hate my work, hated that sexy image, hated those pictures of me onstage, hated that big raunchy person. Onstage, I'm acting the whole time I'm there. As soon as I get out of those songs, I'm Tina again.
america lasts success until
Success in America - what I find with my homeland, nothing lasts very long. Europe is different. You're right there with them until you come back.
love
My mother and father didn't love each other, so they were always fighting.
came dresses grew learned worked
As I grew up, I learned what worked for me. That's where the short dresses came from. And you can't dance in a long dress.
