“Everyone thinks their mom is a superhero, and l feel like I want to be just like my mom. A superhero. She’s a very strong lady.”

I dyed my hair blonde when I was 14. My mom was not happy. But I love being blonde.

All I can do is take influences from where I was raised.

The best thing Jay-Z ever taught me was patience.

Beyoncé built her f–king foundation from the bottom. I think that’s the exact career every female artist wants to have.

For me, music comes naturally. I always just get in the studio and I feel like, wow, this is my heaven.

I’m often mistaken for Spanish or Latin descent.

I think I’ve always been fine on stage – though I get nervous beforehand. But once I’m on stage, all of that goes out of the window.

The public’s not stupid.

Every person has a signature. Just some people don’t know it yet.

The worst thing is when a guy just looks awkward. It’s not attractive.

I love sharing my life with my followers. Hopefully, they are following me because they genuinely want to know me. It’s a way to connect with fans that wasn’t available just a few years ago.

True beauty is knowing who you are and believing in yourself. Happy people know their purpose, have courage to fight for it and strength to keep going.

I’m not going to have a baby until I’m around 30 something.

Clothes are fun. The designers have so much fun making them, you should have fun wearing them, too.

I am committed to glamour.

Stand naked in front of the mirror and say, ‘I’m f–king sexy.’ That’s where it starts.

I don’t think you should feel too pressured about a mixtape. Just do what you want to do and show the music you want to show. You’re not trying to win something big with it.

I had always been feeling uncomfortable in my mind about giving advice to others and not acting upon it myself.

Your feelings are your Super powers.

Life has changed both on and off the court after the Rio Olympics medal. I have a lot of confidence on the court now and feel anything is possible. I also feel that I have improved my game. Off the court, I do get recognised more now.

Sometimes you need to let people feel important by disliking you. It’s their little happiness.

People don’t know how to talk about being depressed – that it’s totally okay to feel sad.

The criteria for success: you are free, you live in the present moment, you are useful to the people around you, and you feel love for all humanity.

If one limb of the body is defected or inflicted with, disease, the whole feels that pain. Some way if any department, minister or official of the state is faulty, the whole country is effected. An administrator should try hard to curb it.
