Sometimes in the black culture, being raised as an independent woman is misconstrued as someone who doesn't need a man. I think that's wrong. I think we all need someone.

I had a record deal early in my life and they offered me the movie, but they said that I had to come in and sing because they needed a singer.

We have relationships and know the exact outcome with that person because we don't deal with ourselves and don't deal with our issues and end up being attracted to the same person or the person is attracted to our energy.

Everybody goes through obstacles and problems and issues and turn their backs on people that we are fond of and love just because we hurt; and everybody goes through that.

Don't ignore the past, but deal with it, on your own pace. Once you deal with it, you are free of it; and you are free to embrace your life and be a happy loving person because if you don't, the past will come back to haunt and keep coming back to haunt you.

I had to study acting to basically educate myself.

I'm in the booth and first of all, I'm from Germany and I had never heard a gospel in my life.

I think that women need men and that men need women and we need each other and that independence and meeting somebody is not mutually exclusive.

You can be very independent, but admit to wanting somebody close to you and that's what me and my wife have. We don't need each other but we want to be with each other and I think it's important to educate the kids with that.

Yet I wanted to have children, and I knew that was my purpose, but I wasn't going to settle.
