I’m not going too far with it, but it’ll be within my roots. I feel like trying a different way to express my music because so many people have already taken from what I’ve done in the past and it kind of makes me not want to ever do anything that I’ve done before.
That’s the beautiful part about acting – you get to play somebody other than yourself. So, I’m open to people who can’t sing, people who can, people that sing a little bit, or people that sing a lot.
My daughter hasn’t seen me with anybody in five years. I’m very, very selective when it comes to that because I want to make sure that it’s real. I don’t want her to see me with just anybody because she means everything to me.
To be on this set today, I feel very blessed for the second chance and for the opportunity, my record company believing in me and everybody here just showing me so much love and support.
Your children can be around you all day, but if you don’t spend quality time with them and you don’t pay attention to them and talk to them and listen to them, it doesn’t matter that they’re just around you.
I just want to continue to do comedy. Comedy, I’m discovering, is my niche. It’s what I’m born to do, so I would love to have my own sitcom one day in the future.
I’m not an R&B singer, I’m a singer. I can sing any music that makes me feel inspired whether it’s Country, a little bit of Rock and roll but within my roots as well.
Whitney Houston is my idol and my mentor and my dream forever, like she will always be my favorite artist, ever, on the planet. Like I don’t think I’ll ever feel that way about another artist.
All I could think about was, ‘I just wanna blow him away. I wanna make him proud, because I really wanna sign with Timbaland and spend the rest of my career making music with Tim.’
I take conscious breaks for myself ’cause I like to rejuvenate and get my creative juices flowing. I also like to take my time with my creativity; I think it’s important.
