“I honestly wear myself out walking around, fixing this and fixing that. Maybe that’s why I like to work so much – so I can just get to that moment where I’m like, “Whoa.” I have to be super tired and knocked out to stop!”

You know, maybe I was just born in the wrong time, but I love all things romantic. Puffy understands that. For my last birthday, he covered my hotel room floor with rose petals and had flowers and candles all over the room.

I have to work, for my soul.

I just knew that was what I wanted to do. I was going to perform as a singer; I was going to perform as a dancer, and I was, you know, going to do movies and be an actress. I was going to do it or die trying. That’s what my life was.

When I am wrong, I will learn the lesson and move on to face other challenges. For me, that’s what creating your own life is. Doing your best work while being your best self.

Whenever it feels uncomfortable to tell the truth, that’s often the most important time to tell it.

If you ask me, I’d like to become the first female president. That would be really cool. The first thing I would do is redecorate the White House, it doesn’t look very cozy.

I was always a singer and a dancer, and I always wanted to be an actress. For me, it’s all just one thing.

You’ve gotta do things that make you happy.

You have to fight for the things you want.

Just because you dress sexy doesn’t mean you’re a bad girl; it just means you know how to dress.

If you don’t love yourself, you can’t love anybody else. And I think as women we really forget that.

When I face myself, I go, “You have a fear of really being on your own. So you know what? That’s what we’re gonna do right now.

Beauty is only skin deep. I think what’s really important is finding a balance of mind, body and spirit.

I only do what my gut tells me to. I think it’s smart to listen to other people’s advice, but at the end of the day, you’re the only one who can tell you what’s right for you.

Always follow your heart. Sometimes it’s gonna hurt – but you’re going to be fine.

It’s a shame to call somebody a ‘diva’ simply because they work harder than everybody else.

I don’t have any favourite lyrics. Honestly, all of them I love ’em to death – it’s the same with songs. I don’t have just one favourite lyric, I love them all.

I have a hard time with morals. All I know is what feels right, what’s more important to me is being honest about who you are. Morals I get a little hung up on.

It’s important to be honest with and respectful of each other and deal with issues as they arrive, as opposed to letting them simmer.

I haven’t had sex in eight months. To be honest, I now prefer to go bowling.

Honesty means nothing until you are tested under circumstances where you are sure you could get away with dishonesty.

Can you blame me if I am pursued by the thought of how much we could do to remedy social evils, if only we had an honest and disinterested press?

Honestly, I have a tendency to date dorks. Which means that a lot of times, I date guys that no one else would deem to be a hunk.

I think you have an obligation to be honest.
