That's why I wrote 'Fighter'. I have that need in me to help people. I am all about the underdog.
I'm a hard worker and I really give to my fans through my shows.
I'm embracing many different things, but it's all feel-good.
I'm one that likes to collaborate. I love feeding off the creative energy, and it only makes me better.
There’s nothing more dangerous than a boy with charm.
I don't have anything to hide but what happens is the media tend to beat up what I say.
The beautiful faces of the children I’ve met in Rwanda and in other countries are with me every day and fuel my passion to raise awareness of the global hunger issue. That’s why I’m urging everyone to join me and #PassTheRedCup for Yum! Brands’ World Hunger Relief effort. Together we can move millions of children from hunger to hope.
I feel things deeply.
I didn't want to do something that was easy for me.
I will not have my son grow up in a tension-filled home.
I'm not just another bimbo.
I felt caged by my childhood.
I have a lot of things to say and a lot of things to let out of me.
I’m addicted to your allure and I’m fiending for a cure.
My fans do deserve to see me back out on the road.
The artists I look up to are the ones who push their own limits.
When I'm lost in the rain, In your eyes I know I'll find the light to light my way And when I'm scared, losing ground When my world is going crazy You can turn it all around and when I'm down you're there Pushing me to the top You're always there, giving me all you've got
I've gone through a really hard divorce, and anyone who has gone through a divorce will speak about how hard the journey is from start to finish. It's a life-uprooting time.
I want to look good when people see me.
Pain is rewarding, in every capacity.
I'm turning 30 years old this year ... it's better than 20, I'll tell you that. The lessons I've learned.
Sometimes magazines will take artist's creative choices too literally; they assume that I actually live the way I do in music videos. For example: the whole "Dirty" thing. Do you think I wear chaps to the grocery store?
People who see an unhappy, sulky pop star assume that she's an ungrateful, self-absorbed little ninny. But nobody knows what's really going on. I need to eat, I need to sleep, and sometimes those things weren't considered. It was like, "When do you think I'll have time to go to the bathroom?" That wasn't on the schedule.
I don't see makeup as a defense. I see it as a creative outlet. I am a woman who has my extreme vulnerable side and my baggage--and at times I feel extremely weak. And who's to say a little mascara doesn't make you feel more confident when you pop it on and look in the mirror? It helps, especially in my position, where I have people waiting down the street to take pictures of me so they can evaluate and criticize every little flaw on my face.
I have those days where I'm PMSing and bloated.
