"Girl, I feel like I was tried. I feel like my character was tried, as if if Vince had a love child, I would be the type of woman who would just accept him and not his child. Well that's not love, because you can't just love a part of a person. You have to love the whole person and everything that comes with that person." 

"I've never said this on television before, but we are married. We got married on our 23rd [anniverary]. I met him on the dance floor at Limelight [club in New York City] in 1994, on his birthday. So, we got married on his birthday, the anniversary of when we met, this year — in January."

“I really respect African-American people. I just want to tell Black stories. This is the frustrating thing, bro — in order to prove that I can play this role, I have to open up about the trauma that I’ve experienced as a Black person. I have to show off my struggle so that people accept that I’m Black. No matter that every single room I go to I’m usually the darkest person there. You know what I’m saying? I kind of resent that mentality. I’m just an individual. Just because you’re Black, you're taken and used to represent something. It mirrors what happens in the film. I resent that I have to prove that I’m Black. I don’t know what that is. I’m still processing it.”

"All we want is justice for my brothers. We thank everyone for their prayers and support."

"It made me sick to my stomach thinking this is the lowest thing I’ve ever seen in this group. The same person has attacked, fought, slandered, and now spews accusations suggesting a criminal act. This cannot get any lower… You expect people to defend themselves or perhaps get angry over lies, but the real question is why would anyone need to defend themselves against a blatantly false accusation of attempted drugging or worse?"

“They ask for money. I said I don’t have any money. They dragged me out on to the hallway on top of the stairs. That’s when I saw the gun clear, like clear as day. I was kind of looking at the gun, looking down back at the stairs.”

"When I was a kid, I was with my dad and my two brothers. Growing up, I was treated as the favorite because I was the only girl. I was the princess; I was perfect in my dad's eyes."

“I came to Hollywood to be rich and famous. I didn’t realize you could be poor and popular.”

“The good thing that fans should be excited about is that the album is just getting better and better. It’s not sitting in limbo, it’s being improved upon and growing all the time. Even since a year ago, I feel like I’ve changed a lot. I’m a 24-year-old woman, and when you’re my age, you can grow a lot in a year. Even musically and creatively, I’m inspired by new things. The energy shifts. It’s an evolution, but it’s continuing to get more exciting, more relevant, and just better. I hope everyone is patient with me, but when it does drop, it’s going to be f*****g worth it.”

“I didn’t fall, dude, I flew. I was floating. I don’t fall. S**t, nothing happened. Floating is amazing. It’s like getting in a plane. I just flew, man. I’m a magician, like David Blaine. I could never fall. Drake is an amazing person. Also, a magician. He’s a big brother, super-talent, he’s cool.”

“Since I was a little girl, I’ve been obsessed with grandiose acts and performers who make the seemingly impossible possible. I love how AGT brings that feeling into everyone’s home, capturing the best of people who come out and give it their all to make those big, fierce and outrageous dreams come true.”
