“My perfect guy wears converse, is totally laid back, and doesn’t worry about being cool.”

The day I got my first letter from a fan, I felt like I’d been touched by an angel.

If you are able to look yourself in the mirror every day with the decisions that you make, that’s where power starts.

Vulnerable ain’t easy believe me, but I go there.

I do everything for my fans. I do my clothing line, my fragrance, my TV show, my music everything is based on them.

Being single can pave the way for new opportunities.

You are who you surround yourself with.

You can have it all without suffering from a meltdown.

The people who put you down don’t have to stop you from chasing your dreams. Stand up, and prove them wrong.

I am in competition with no one. I have no desire to play the game of being better than anyone. I am simply trying to be better than the person I was yesterday.

I believe in second chances, but I don’t believe in third or fourth chances.

If you have three people in your life that you can trust, you can consider yourself the luckiest person in the whole world.

Haters can keep on hating.

I attempt to be who I am and it’s fun. At the same time, growing up doing what I’m doing can be a little crazy.

I’m no beauty queen, I’m just beautiful me.

I did gain weight, but I don’t care.

I’m a sappy mom now. I didn’t think I would be. I thought I’d be a cool mom who keeps everything in perspective.

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.

That’s cool and all but also screw you.

I’m cool. I don’t need to be skinny. I like to be strong.

Emotion will always win over coolness and cleverness. It’s when a scene works emotionally and it’s cool and clever, then it’s great. That’s what you want.

If each dead person became a ghost, there’d be more than 100 billion of them haunting us all. Creepy, but cool.

The calm, Cool face of the river, Asked me for a kiss.

We real cool. We Left school. We Lurk late. We Strike straight. We Sing sin. We Thin gin. We Jazz June. We Die soon.
