Some people do drugs, I buy shoes!

The only failure is not knowing how to be happy."---My Story

I think it is such a privilege to give a baby its first home inside your body. [After the pregnancy was over] I found myself massaging my stomach gently. I miss him being in my body -- stretching, hiccupping even. It was a wonderful, deep, loving, fulfilling feeling.

The first song that I ever recorded was written by my mother.

Family and friends and Rene and the pregnancy fulfilled me with so much love.

On her baby: He's 16 months old and he eats soap and paper. What's going on with kids?

I am the youngest of 14 children, so I rarely got a chance to speak. If I have an opportunity for talking, I talk

There's always a new thing happening to me that's even more extraordinary, so pressure gets harder. But I like it when it's hard. Anyone can do it when it's easy. When it's hard and you can do it good, you're proud of yourself. There's going to be more pressure as the years go by, that's for sure. But I think I'm a hard worker and I'm ready for that. As long as I believe in what I'm doing, the pressure is okay with me.

I'm everything I am because you loved me.

As a singer, I've had many opportunities to travel, and one thing I've learned is that through my music, I can be accepted by people all over the world. I often wonder why so many of us can't accept people who are different here, in our country? It's just not fair to be prejudiced against those whose race, religion or colour aren't the same as ours.

For me, singing was real life, not two plus two equals four.

Even though there may be times It seems I'm far away Never wonder where I am 'Cause I am always by your side.

What I hope the most is to be more successful as a mother than in show business, because to be a mother is the most difficult I will ever have to do.

The hardest thing to find in life is balance - especially the more success you have, the more you look to the other side of the gate. What do I need to stay grounded, in touch, in love, connected, emotionally balanced? Look within yourself.

Near, far wherever you are...you're here in my heart.

Your heart is pure, your soul is free. Be on your way, don't wait for me.

There's one way to do showbiz, if you want to do it perfectly, you have to be disciplined and you have to be ready to work really hard.

When you want it the most, there's no easy way out.When you're ready to go, and your heart's left in doubt. Don't give up on your faith, love comes to those who believe it...And that's the way it is.

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.

There's people still there, waiting to be rescued, and for me it's not acceptable.

The way it was said makes it sound like I'm not singing live at my shows, which is not true. In the past, we've used instrumentation and voice samples on the up-tempo numbers. This just gives the dance tracks a bit more punch to enhance the live performance, but I think that's normal.

Its the moment you think you can't that you realize you can.

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.
