I'm Still An Embryo With

If You Had Told Me When I Was 18 That I Wouldn't Have Made It Until I Was 29, I Would Have Said, Forget It.

I Wanted Control Over The Merchandising, The Actual Packaging Of The Product. That Was A Big Factor. The Only Way For Me To Exercise Control On All Those Levels Was To Start My Own Label.

If You Tell People Your Ambitions, They Usually Laugh At You. When I Told My Girlfriends When I Was 12 That I Was Going To Hollywood, They All Laughed. And Here I Am!

It Took So Long To Make It In America. The Year I Arrived Was A Bad Year For Women Singers, The Record Company Told Me. So I Starved. I Lived In A Hotel So Dreadful I Can't Even Talk About It.

There Is No Magic Person Out There, No Perfect Human Being Out There Waiting For You.
