I want my music to be a contribution, and I want the people who love me on Earth and in Heaven to be proud of who I am, and I want to be proud of myself, and I don’t want to look back and say, ‘Oh God, why did I say that?’
The Beatles were in a different stratosphere, a different planet to the rest of us. All I know is when I heard ‘Love Me Do’ on the radio, I remember walking down the street and knowing my life was going to be completely different now the Beatles were in it.
I want a long-lasting career. I want to build up a fan base that will come to my shows and love me no matter if I have a song on the radio or not.

Ali was a threat because he was a voice, and the people hated Ali when he was a voice, but once Ali could no longer speak and he wasn’t a voice, they loved him. Love me now. I don’t want to be loved if I could barely walk or barely talk. That’s not cool.

You never know if they like you for who you are or what you are. Would he love me or the money?
In ‘Kinky Boots,’ I looked for moments to be bold, showing Lauren’s gutsiness and smarts. She’s a little bit kooky now, too, and I love me some kooky.

I’m still a little girl in Hawaii, I have the same friends I had when I was a kid who love me for who I am – not what I do. I never got caught up in the club scene or took wrong roads.
Women like me. Women love me. But not so my wife need worry. Not in a ‘he’s so hot’ type of way. More in a ‘come round for a cup of tea’ way.

I love the fans. I hope they love me back.
I’ve always been sort of, ‘I love it,’ or, ‘I hate it,’ and I think, as a result, I’ve always been a polarizing person. You either love me or you hate me. There’s not a lot of ‘Hmmm.’

One of the things in marriage is you have to understand what appreciation is about, and that’ll keep me for longevity. That’s why my fans love me, because I appreciate them. Because with no fans, there would be no sport, no fighting for me, no UFC, no Bellator, no Rizin; there’d be nothing without the fans.
I always wanted everyone to love me, probably because I didn’t love myself enough. But now I realize that when you’re an artist, you’re making the music that’s in your head and in your heart, and not for any other reason.
