I never consider myself a star, I'm just someone who loves to sing.

I don't know what's better gettin' laid or gettin' paid.

Failure gave me an inner security that I had never attained by passing examinations. Failure taught me things about myself that I could have learned no other way. I discovered that I had a strong will, and more discipline than I had suspected; I also found out that I had friends whose value was truly above the price of rubies.

I don’t need validation from anyone to know my worth.
