I signed to Def Jam and within two months, I heard that Ja Rule was looking for someone to do a song with.

Living in Maryland, I saw that the opportunities were far greater in California than back home.

I was living in Maryland and my first week was dreadful. My first week I actually got into a fight at school

I enjoy being happy every day, and hopefully you can hear my happiness in my music. Life is beautiful.

Even in relationships, I don't get my hopes up or anything, especially not right now because I know I'm young and I've got plenty of time later in the future.

I also have two dogs, a Chihuahua and a Yorkshire terrier, so if they like him, that's a good sign.

I like doing arts and crafts, so I would probably go to one of those fun little ceramic places and go paint some plates and do something fun like that

For one year I did go to Performing Arts School, and I had very weird friends.

Love yourself for who you are. You are beautiful inside and out, and nobody can take that away from you.

When I meet somebody, I hang out with them, and it's all good, but I don't take it too seriously

I had actually been on tour in Japan and I had my own world tour that I was doing. I was used to doing a show for an hour, so I was always learning choreography

Success in love is mostly luck, though we hate to admit.

I may not be a king or a queen, but I'll be damned if I'm not treated like royalty.

I love you - I am at rest with you - I have come home.

With modeling, you pose. You want to look your best all the time. With acting, you have to be aware of the camera, but the more you show your imperfections, the better you're going to be.

We can't always take the most obvious road in life.

The more ignorant, reckless and thoughtless a doctor is, the higher his reputation soars even amongst powerful princes.

Revolutions are not made with rosewater.

If I were running al-Qaeda in Iraq, I would put a circle around March 2008 and be praying as many times as possible for a victory not only for Obama but also for the Democrats.

Only some ghastly dehumanised moron would want to get rid of the Routemaster.

In season, all is good.
