“If you're going to be a star, you should look like one.”

“You have to be a little bit crazy to do what I do.”

“When you have a baby, you set up an environment... you share your baby with people. You don't do that for a tumor.”

“The way to feel better about yourself is to do something for someone else.”

“You need to be able to manage stress because hard times will come, and a positive outlook is what gets you through.”

“God is not a vending machine. We don't just put in a prayer and get out a blessing.”

“My faith is a huge part of my life. It's not a religion; it's a relationship.”

“I think the most important thing is to be in a good mood and enjoy life, wherever you are.”

“You can't be a legend in your own lifetime.”

“I believe that if you don't derive a deep sense of purpose from what you do, you don't have a passion for it.”

“You have to be a person who is adaptable. You can't be a fixed idealist. You have to be a pragmatic idealist.”

“Music is a part of my life, but it's not my life. I'm a mother, and that's my number one priority.”

“For me, the No. 1 priority in life was to always have a family. To have children and be a mother.”

“My secret to staying young is to be happy. And to have a great plastic surgeon.”

“My mother said to me, 'You're a professional. Act like one.'”

“I think my mother taught me what not to do. She put us first, always, sometimes to the detriment of herself.”
