Being a mother, singer and actress is a definite juggling act, but I don't think I would be comfortable any other way.

I was never into the boy crazy thing because I was very focused on my career.

My first love was singing and I had no time for boys.

I don't think there is such a thing as being too raunchy when it comes to the art form of burlesque.

I feel things deeply.

I've always been really good with my heels. Even pregnant, I could perform in heels.

I felt caged by my childhood.

I knew there would be a negative reaction in the press to my divorce, but I am not going to live my life because of something someone might say.

I will not have my son grow up in a tension-filled home.

Mormons aren't gonna buy my album but, you know, what are you gonna do?

I think they say that when you're breast feeding, you know, your weight kind of slims down. It's a little easier. It's like a workout within itself. It's very tiring actually and you find yourself snacking more often.

Everybody needs that one person that takes you to the right place to see all the positives in your life.

I think all of us as women have this super-human quality. We create life, we give life, we are the sources of life for our children - we're all pretty bionic.

I think it's a given that people know what I can do vocally.

I'm a smart girl. There are decisions that I make for reasons, and the most important thing is that my son is happy and he always will be. He's surrounded by love.

It's always nerve-wracking when you're hosting 'Saturday Night Live.' You either sink or swim.

I remember watching the Grammys and looking at the performances and crying to my mom, saying how much I wanted to be there.

I was known as the little girl with the big voice.

I'm embracing many different things, but it's all feel-good.

I'm a lucky girl.

I think it's really great when you stand up for something that you really believe, even if you get heat for it.

When you're part of a pop phenomenon, you have so many opinions shoved down your throat.

It can be hard in this business, especially when you're very young, to figure out who you can and can't trust.

Getting older, you just don't want to sing fluffy.
