- I believe strongly in my work and need time, because I put 100 percent in everything I write and everything I do. My modeling, my music, my acting, everything that I'm getting ready to get into, I put 100 percent into. I want whoever is going to back me with it to put 100 percent into it.
- But this is Miami, you can't come to Miami and not show any skin. You gotta show something. If you're all covered up in this heat, you're gonna make me pass out out just to look at you. It's sweaty in Miami-but the diamonds will keep me cool.
- I really want people to understand that nobody is perfect and that things happen in life beyond our control.

- All my life, men have told me I wasn't pretty enough - even the men I was dating. And I'd be like, 'Well, why are you with me, then?' It's always been men putting me down just like my dad. To this day when someone says I'm cute, I can't see it. I don't see it no matter what anybody says.

- [on doing the 'Lady Marmalade' music video with Christina Aguilera, Mya and Pink]: We worked really hard that day, I remember there was a little tension because, you know, Mya's my girl ... but a lot of the girls didn't know each other. I knew almost everybody, but it was like everyone was in their own little corner.
