The songs from your childhood, when you hear them you get chills all over.

The red carpet is not something I really know how to work. It intimidates me. I feel very tiny.

I could sing in English before I could understand it because I phonetically learned it from the musicals.

It's not my style to judge anybody.

People don't get through to the essence of you right away - it's always the famous 'girl' or the famous 'girlfriend'. I'd rather be known for myself.

My children are grown now, they are more independent.

My daughter loves singing above all else.

It's difficult when you want it all.

In the winter I separate, in the summer I marry. It's been 15 years since I've been getting married every year.

I was for sure not prepared for fame when it happened.
