I Want A Bad Boy In Public,

I Was 21. At The Time, I Was Under The Thumb Of My Label, And I Felt Like I Had To Do, Say And Act Out Everything They Asked Me To Do. I Was Trying To Please Them And The Public And Finally I Had To Say, "enough. I'm Going To Make A Record That Makes Me Happy And Addresses All Facets Of Being A Woman. I Don't Care If I Sell One Or One Million Records." That's How I Came To Make Stripped.

The Beautiful Faces Of The Children I’ve Met In Rwanda And In Other Countries Are With Me Every Day And Fuel My Passion To Raise Awareness Of The Global Hunger Issue. That’s Why I’m Urging Everyone To Join Me And #passtheredcup For Yum! Brands’ World Hunger Relief Effort. Together We Can Move Millions Of Children From Hunger To Hope.

I Embrace My Body, And I Embrace Everything About Myself.

Being Too Thin. Being Bigger. I've Been Criticized For Being On Both Sides Of The Scale.

Who Is That Girl I See, Staring Straight Back At Me? When Will My Reflection Show Who I Am Inside?
