“I have never gotten into the label thing.”

You can always tell where Diana Ross has been by the hair that’s left behind!

Discipline is a necessary tool to help you get what you want in life. It forces you to stay on center and to move away from the things that are not necessary.

I’m a parent, and I try to take care of my health and keep my life in order. In the last few years I’ve really had to decide what’s important to me, and it seems to me that my family and my health are top on the list. And those have nothing to do with show business.

It’s easier for me to sit with the producers and the writers and I give them my feelings and my thoughts and what I think I feel like singing about and then they go away and write it.

Do you know where you going to? Do you like the things that life is showing you? Where are you going to? Do you know?

I think that if my voice for some reason changes – because your voice does change – then it’s time for me not to sing.

I’ve never been damaged or hurt by press. It’s just that I think it’s unfair to use your name in media.

My life has often been described as ‘from rags to riches’ but in fact, the Ross’s were never raggedy.

If I do an interview, then I take full responsibility. I figure I’m not going to talk to anyone that I think is unethical anyway.

I jog and I roller-skate. I dance – that’s the best exercise.

I try to choose the songs that really are basically coming from my heart. I think that through the songs that I select, people know what’s going on in my life.

I don’t think getting in and out of a limousine has anything to do with being an icon.

Most people are so hard to please that if they met God, they’d probably say yes, she’s great, but.

I’d traveled a lot, was going temporarily insane and became very successful, but there was no one to take that all home to.

I listen to most everything that’s out there because I need to stay aware of what’s happening in the industry.

With the Supremes I made so much money so fast all I wanted to do was buy clothes and pretty things. Now I’m comfortable with money and it’s comfortable with me.

So you have to just be really careful and make sure that when a deal comes along, that it’s like the right deal for you… not necessarily the most money, because you have to pay the record label that back in like record sales and stuff.

Actually, we got signed in November of 2000 with Dreamworks which is the most amazing label.

We have friends on other labels and though we are not selling millions of records, yet, they treat us with tons of respect and give us some very good guidance.

I think where it’s going is toward what the music industry is like, where channels will be considered more like labels that carry the type of TV show that you like

I think putting labels on people is just an easy way of marketing something you don’t understand.

I’ve been kind of toying around with the bi thing in my head. I wouldn’t ever give myself the label ‘bisexual,’ but bi-curious? Yea.

We just watch anything speed by. To stop and really ponder what a product label says, or the tagline on a TV commercial, might be inherently silly. Those are things that are almost designed to be thrown away.

I’m still a hip-hop producer. I never put a label on what I can do as a producer or a DJ.
