As an artist, I think it's important to always keep growing, and I definitely want to keep challenging myself. ”

It's sad how people want to see us females go against each other. Never been for that. Never will. ”

My biggest competition is me. ”

As soon as the doctor said I could start training again, I was on the treadmill the very next day. Once I got back into it, I worked out two or three times daily. ”

I want to be one of those moms and women that when I look back, I know that I always stayed focused. ”

I learned everything along the way. I only performed five times before I was in the public eye. ”

I'm a military baby, so I kind of always see the world as one; we just have different colours, and we're from different places in the world. ”

No one is different from the other. I'm very grateful that I have a diverse group of fans as well. We welcome individuality over here in my world, and I think that my fans can see and feel that. ”

Juggling being a mom and an entertainer is a challenge I face every day. ”

As we get older, it's important for us to help hand back some of what we've gained as we've grown older. It should be one of your responsibilities - it's almost like being a mentor. ”
