I know God loves me. I tell people all the time I'm one of his favorite childs. I had to believe in something bigger than me - bigger than man. I had to believe that God would send somebody across my path to keep my dreams alive.

One of my dreams was to change the way women of color were seen on television.

I do talk about celebrity relationships like Kim Kardashian's. I like to find the humor in love.

GPS is expensive because it is a very slow communication channel - you need to communicate with three or four satellites for an extended duration at 50 bits per second.

I'm ultimately a widow and a single mother, who's not even getting to be a mother right now. I am so alone, it's freaky.

I like all the angels around because they protect me and my daughter. I mean, her Dad's an angel.

One of the most important lessons we can glean from the environmental movement is to 'think globally and act locally.'

My dad put up a great hoop in our front yard in our driveway. I was in Oregon, so I had to be out there in the rain. We didn't always have a gym to go to.

I was lucky. A lot of people have that. People that don't tell you what you want to hear, but what's best for you. I was blessed with great friends. I was always blessed that way. My dad always kept good people around me. I just got lucky. Because of the spotlight you're in, people are scared to tell you otherwise.

When people come and see me, I want them to experience joy. I don't do any sad songs in my show. It's to lift the spirit.
