I know that people think I'm sexy and I am looked at as that. It is cool with me. It's wonderful to have sexy appeal. If you embrace it, it can be a very beautiful thing.

If you want to go to the mall, you have to take security. But it's always cool. The kids are amazing.

It's really a sad story, and I liked that. The songs on this album talk about relationships in every aspect.

I think it's important to take a break, you know, from the public eye for a while, and give people a chance to miss you. I want longevity. I don't want to get out there and run myself ragged and spread myself thin.

All I can do is leave it in God's hands and hope that my fans feel where I'm coming from.
