There Are Repercussions To Everything, Even Advancement

I Was Backstage At The House Of Blues In L.a Where I Was About To Perform, And Stevie Wonder And Prince Turned Up At My Dressing Room Together! Stevie Started Beat Boxing And Prince Started Singing One Of My Songs, All Of A Sudden It Was Like I Was In A Cypher With These Incredible Artists.

I Didn't Leave Home Until 27. I Was An Only Child Raised In Philadelphia By My Mother And Grandmother. My Grandmother Controlled The Stove. She Made A Lot Of Potato Meals - Mashed Potato, Potato Souffle, Potato Pancakes. When We Didn't Have Electricity We Ate Romantically, By Candlelight.

I've Been Around The World And I've Had Bras Made In Different Places, And Each Time I'm Experiencing The Same Troubles: The Painful Shoulders, The Underwire Cutting Into My Flesh.

When I Sing, I Have To Live In That Moment, So My Audience Can Feel That. That Is My Reason For Doing Art.

I Could Float In The Pool For Hours, Just Letting The Water Carry Me.
