My health and my family are the core of my being.

I have always believed exercise is a key not only to physical health but to peace of mind.

I am a vegetarian as well as a passionate anti-alcoholic, because I can thus make better use of my brain.

A light heart lives long.

Every video I'm in, every magazine cover, they stretch you - they make you perfect. It's not real life. I'm gonna say this about girls: The dieting wars have got to stop. Everyone just knock it off. Because at the end of the day, it's affecting kids your age. And it's making girls sick.

When I started singing, I weighed 153 pounds. I weigh 184 now. I haven't gotten any taller, but I'm putting on a little more weight.
