I was a 10 million-plus selling artist.

You don't want a whole bunch of yes people around you.

Grammys, American Music Awards, successful albums, I'd pick my kids any day over any of it.

I am fed up with men who use sex like a sleeping pill.

I can't record in the morning because I sound like Barry White.

I'd lose my mind if I heard my kid call the nanny Mommy.

I'll probably be 80 years old and still performing. Music is like fashion, it changes. But some things will always be the same.

I'm a businesswoman who's serious about her money. I want an empire.

I'm not a diva. I'm a tadpole trying to be a frog.

To do what you love can sometimes be stressful.

Performing live is the greatest high in the world. That's why I do what I do.

I know for works for me - those wonderful sad love songs.
