I Talked About Adopting A Baby When I Was 20 Years Old, Before It Became 'hip.'

I've Been Singing For Six Years. I've Been In And Out Of The Studios With Top Producers, But It Wasn't Something I Was Ready To Express To The Public Or To The Press. I Wasn't Ready To Come Out. I Wanted To Perfect My Voice And Be 100 Percent Positive That I Could Come Out Right.

Smiles Come Naturally To Me, But I Started Thinking Of Them As An Art Form At My Command. I Studied All The Time. I Looked At Magazines, I'd Practice In Front Of The Mirror And I'd Ask Photographers About The Best Angles. I Can Now Pull Out A Smile At Will.
