Owning your curves means being confident – actually being confident – in your own skin.

There’s a lot of power in the word ‘no,’ and a lot of people, like myself, need to know that.

Everybody’s born to be different, that’s the one thing that makes us the same.

Owning your curves means being confident – actually being confident – in your own skin. Growing up was tricky for me, it was so hard to shop with all of my friends and not being able to fit into the tiny clothes they were wearing.

Now that I’m famous, guys don’t hit on me.

I want to be better at being single, and I want to be better at feeling okay about being single. I don’t need a boyfriend.

Art is the colors and textures of your imagination.

Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top. My mama, she told me don’t worry about your size. She says boys like a little more booty to hold at night. Yeah I won’t be no stick figure silicone Barbie doll, so if that’s what you’re into then go ahead and move along.

When I got famous, all of a sudden guys wouldn’t look at me. Period. So I felt a little sad, a little frustrated. Like, What’s going on here? I’ve never been prettier in my life and I’m so cool and successful.

As the CEO running my life, running Meghan Trainor, I have to say ‘no’ to things all the time, and it’s been very uncomfortable and very difficult. I’ve said ‘no’ and it’s actually worked – even when I never thought it would work.

My most useful acting tip came from my pal John Wayne. Talk low, talk slow, and don’t say too much.

Jill, we became parents so we could tell our kids what to do. Otherwise we’re just the tallest people living here.

I guess the best advice I ever got or anyone could get for doing a talk show, though it has not been easy very often, was from Jack Paar, who said, ‘Kid, don’t make it an interview. Interviews have clipboards, and you’re like David Frost. Make it a conversation.’

Having sisters is the best. I have a different relationship with each of them. I go to Kim for fashion advice, Khloe is always boy and family advice, and Kourtney is like another mother to me.

Choose wise and Godly people to advise you.

Fear depends on time for it’s strength! Confront that which you fear with speed.

I would advise young artists to paint as they can, as long as they can, without being afraid of painting badly.
