Music has the power to make me feel good like nothing else does. It gives me some peace for a while. Takes me back to who I really am.

I feel like good music comes and goes in waves.

I don't drink. I don't like it. It makes me feel good.

I like clothes that make me feel good. My favourite designers include Michelle Jonas and Dolce & Gabbana. Their clothes make me feel as if I'm Sophia Loren - really womanly.

I feel like Sony appreciates good music from a talented artist.

I was a better writer when I was teaching. I was constantly going over the basics and constantly reminding myself, as I reminded my students, what made a good story, a good poem.
