“I play by my own rules so please think twice before you step into my life.”

When I see myself as an old woman, I just think about being happy. And hopefully, I’ll still be fly.

You can’t master your future if you’re still a slave to your past.

Making music is like shopping for me. Every song is like a new pair of shoes.

People want to shy away from the truth and keep sweeping it under the rug.

Put your troubles aside and start living.

I may be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it.

I just love a challenge, whether it’s a relationship, my career, clothing.

When something feels real, you don’t make any apologies for it. When it feels good to you, nothing else matters. Everything else is just noise.

I love music, and after my first experience with movies, I can’t wait to do more.

Lipstick can glam up a whole look, especially in red.

The minute you learn to love yourself you won’t want to be anyone else.

The more I swear I’m happy the more I’m feeling alone.

When I cut my hair, the whole sound changed, my style changed.

I rarely know exactly what I want to do, but always know exactly how I want it to make me feel. Feeling always leads the sound!

All my favorite artists and fashion icons and models are from the Nineties. Everybody was just so fearless.

I want to give people a taste of the Caribbean, and show them the fun side of me.

The secret is contained in a three-part formula I learned in the gym: self confidence, a positive mental attitude, and honest hard work.

I’m a writer, and I will write what I want to write.

The difference between a good life and a bad life is how well you walk through the fire.

Character is the direct result of mental attitude.

I was born to be a leader. I love the fact that millions of people look up to me.

If you aim higher than you expect, you could reach higher than you dreamed.

You don’t need anybody to tell you who you are or what you are. You are what you are!

What were once vices are the fashion of the day.
