“Imagine for a minute yourself in the same shoes, the same sense of survival and the same nothing to lose.”

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

I know I always say my occupation is not dancing, but dancing is in my heart, dancing makes me feel good.

When you find someone loyal cherish them because the word loyal is extinct, it doesn’t exist anymore.

I’m older, and I wish that a lot of things that I did in my life, I didn’t do, but I’m able to talk about it.

I want all my friends, family and fans to know that I am in good spirits and I will be fine.

In the beginning, yes I did go back… (but) I learned that if it’s continued abusive, you just can’t stay there. When guys are young, they make mistakes. Nobody’s perfect, but, if they do it more than once, then it’s definitely a habit

Today begins a new saga in my life which I expect to strengthen me and allow me time for reflection. I plan to write music while in prison, read and pray regularly and will come out a stronger, more confident woman.

It was a very emotional dinner. Everyone shared personal stories about her and gave her words of encouragement and inspiration. Everyone tried to remain positive.

My fan mail is what keeps me going.

If your immature, I’m out the door.

A lot of people let me down… A lot of people I thought were my friends turned on me.

You can’t really just make someone into something and it works all the time; that person has to be a natural.

I respect everybody, but at the same time, I carry myself with an aura that demands respect, too.

I do not have too much sex. I hardly have any sex, O.K.? A lot of people get the wrong perception of me.

If you are blessed enough to become a Mom it is the most beautiful, rewarding feeling in the whole world.

Throughout my life, I have always lived with adversity and will continue to have faith and do good for my family, friends and fans.
