Love yourself for who you are. You are beautiful inside and out, and nobody can take that away from you.

Living in Maryland, I saw that the opportunities were far greater in California than back home.

I was living in Maryland and my first week was dreadful. My first week I actually got into a fight at school

I enjoy being happy every day, and hopefully you can hear my happiness in my music. Life is beautiful.

Even in relationships, I don't get my hopes up or anything, especially not right now because I know I'm young and I've got plenty of time later in the future.

I also have two dogs, a Chihuahua and a Yorkshire terrier, so if they like him, that's a good sign.

I like doing arts and crafts, so I would probably go to one of those fun little ceramic places and go paint some plates and do something fun like that

For one year I did go to Performing Arts School, and I had very weird friends.

I signed to Def Jam and within two months, I heard that Ja Rule was looking for someone to do a song with.

When I meet somebody, I hang out with them, and it's all good, but I don't take it too seriously

I had actually been on tour in Japan and I had my own world tour that I was doing. I was used to doing a show for an hour, so I was always learning choreography

It is relatively easy to design for the perfect cases, when everything goes right, or when all the information required is available in proper format.

Criticism is an indirect form of self-boasting.

This one's for you, and I truly hope you hear me, Through all your travels, I'm wishing you a peaceful journey.

I hope that I can make good music out of whatever genre I go into. Just to prove to myself that I can.

Find the one thing you’re good at and FOCUS on it.

No one wants to see a person on TV who's super-ultra-cool. That's Superman, that's a thing of the past. Heroes are now flawed, and have terrible tempers, you know? They're real people.

Being an actor is mostly about rejection and being out of work. It was a fast lesson in all of that stuff.

Don't throw out buzz words without really knowing what is going on behind it.

Most years, if you were to ask me how much I make, the genuine answer is that I have no clue. I usually find out the answer to that question once a year, at tax time, when my accountant tells me.

It is best to live however one can be.
