|---|---|
| 1 | First of all, let's get one thing straight. Crack is cheap. I make too much money to ever smoke crack, let's get that straight, OK? We don't do crack. We don't do that. Crack is whack. |
| 2 | [on the death of Michael Jackson] I am full of grief. |
| 3 | I know that I could really kill for my daughter. I know because I'm living for her, so I'm fierce when it comes down to it. And I feel the same about my husband and my family. I'm just fiercely protective. It's like, that's my lair and nobody messes with my lair. |
| 4 | I was aware of people staring at me. No one moved. They seemed almost in trance. I just stared at the clock in the center of the church. When I finished, everyone clapped and started crying. |
| 5 | God gave me a voice to sing with, and when you have that, what other gimmick is there?" |
| 6 | I've got a good man. He takes care of me. I don't have to be scared of anything because I know he will kick every ass... disrespect him and you've got a problem. |
| 7 | I almost wish I could be more exciting, that I could match what is happening out there to me. |

| 5 | Was snubbed for a Best New Artist Grammy nomination due to the fact that she sang back up on a Jermaine Jackson single before her debut album was released. This caused much controversy since several other nominees in this category (including Led Zeppelin, Asia and The Knack) were industry veterans, as were some winners (Crosby Stills & Nash and Jody Watley). |
