Whitney and I have fun reading the newspaper sometimes. You'd be amazed at the places they say I've been.

I look forward to putting out the new CD and doing the television performances to show everyone that B. Brown is back. In fact, I never left.

I like being in control of making all the major decisions pertaining to my projects. That's something that you don't get to do in a group. Everything has to be voted on - every minor decision.

I feel that the simplicity of life is just being yourself.

I've never isolated role models based on gender. I have more male role models due to the mere fact that I've done business with more of them and they're leaders within the verticals I work. Of those, Tony Hsieh, CEO of Zappos.com, is an entrepreneur and personal friend that I have a great deal of respect for.

When I worked in the Department of Justice, in the office of the solicitor general, it was my job to argue cases for the United States before the Supreme court. I always found it very moving to stand before the justices and say, 'I speak for my country.'

People have different opinions of your career and how you've played and all that, and they're entitled to their opinions.

Magic in plays and musicals, I think, is more often created because of the work of an incredible company rather than a single component.
