I mean, I feel like you get more bees with honey. But that doesn't mean I don't get frustrated in my life.

If you are with the right person, it brings out the best version of you.

I grew up upper-class. Private school. My dad had a Jaguar. We're African-American, and we work together as a family, so people assume we're like the Jacksons. But I didn't have parents using me to get out of a bad situation.

I like guys who are cool and laid-back.Someone who works really hard and has goals but who I can be silly with. Looks are not important to me.

In my videos, I always want to be a powerful woman. That's my mission.

I'm always thinking about women, and what we need to hear. It's difficult being a woman. It's so much pressure, and we need that support sometimes and we need that escape sometimes.

Actually I am having so much fun, it has been the most fun time now that it has been announced and I don't have to, you know, it was really difficult to conceal, but now that I can be proud and excited about it I'm having so much fun shopping -- it's great.

My message behind this album was finding the beauty in imperfection.

Honestly...how did I do as a big sister?

I was thinkin if I cheated on my fears, broke up with my doubts, got engaged to my faith. I can marry my dreams.

Men and women balance each other out, and we have to get to a point where we are comfortable with appreciating each other.

I get nervous when I don't get nervous. If I'm nervous I know I'm going to have a good show.

Diana Ross is a big inspiration to all of us. We all grew up watching everything about her -- her mike placement, her grace, her style and her class.

My fans kept asking where they could get clothes like 'Destiny's Child's', so it was only natural for us to do a clothing line. I was adamant about not putting my name on something that I didn't love.

I always have breakfast, say, scrambled egg whites, a vegetable smoothie, or whole-grain cereal with low-fat milk. For lunch and dinner, I eat a lot of fish and vegetables. And throughout the day, I try to stay hydrated.

You know what, I'm very attracted to someone who makes me laugh and is that charming. Really, I could be charmed by anyone. I'm just a sucker for somebody that is charming.

I lost most of my weight from breastfeeding and I encourage women to do it; It's just so good for the baby and good for yourself.

We have to teach our girls that they can reach as high as humanly possible.

I don't really like to call myself a brand, and I don't like to think of myself as a brand. I'm a singer, a songwriter, a musician and a performer. And an actress, and all the other things that I do. When you add it all together, some might call it a brand, but that's not my focus.

Thank God I found the GOOD in goodbye.
