If you’ve never been to one of my concerts. I want you to know that it is OK to scream and yell.

It would be nice if you have a hit. But I don’t think it’s necessary to continue with my career at this point.

When I’m not working I try to stay out of the public eye as much as possible.

I haven’t really been recording in the last several years. I haven’t wanted to. And even though I had to deal with Sony and now I’m on Universal again, I will probably put out a new record soon.

Let’s say that, in reality, I’m basically very shy when it comes to men.

I don’t really try to predict what can and will happen with things. Sometimes you think something’s gonna be a huge success, and it isn’t. And sometimes you pay no attention to something whatsoever, and God just makes it into everything.

I don’t keep a press agent because I think people need to have a break from you.

Nobody wants you to stop, obviously because you’re a moneymaking machine. But you have to make the decision and you have to move forward. So I took time off to have babies and do all that.

A friend of mine called and said they’re interested in having you do a song for the new Pokemon. All my kids are grown up, so I’d heard of it, but I didn’t really know what it was.

Heaven knows, it’s not the way it could be.
