My friends have always told me that rock stardom was wasted on me.

I'm not one for big public displays of affection, anyway. Straight, gay, whatever.

Our great Constitution challenges us to grow constantly.

My kids and I love to listen to Bill Cosby.

My wife works harder than anyone else with the children around the house. I make the money, sure, but she does everything else.

My ultimate joy and happiness is being a wife and mother.

I have a very strong opinions about health and our responsibility to our own health, and I will always say what I feel.
