'Vanity' means worthlessness.

A girl's best friend is her pride.

Prince and I happen to think alike.

Every day, I wake up and say, 'Good Morning, Jesus.'

I repent daily my sins, my faults, and my shortcomings.

I sing to Jesus for Jesus now. This gives me pure joy... worship!

Getting past my past... was a process, a very serious process indeed.

I apologize profusely to those I have offended deeply a million times over.

I used to sneak into my mother's closet and try to wear her lingerie to school.

An abused childhood affects the entire life... It affects every facet of the life.

According to God's word, we haven't done a very good job concerning our little ones, nor our teens.

I never thought, 'Oh God, I'm in Prince's shadow.' He'd been performing for years, and he was my teacher.

I go to wherever God calls me, wherever the church calls me to come to minister and preach the word of God.

Boy, it is not fun suffering in this body of weak flesh, but Jesus is straightening out all my crooked places.

I don't listen to my old music of Vanity's unless I have to hear it playing in a mall or something place like that.

I was miserable the entire time I was Vanity. I spent so many days and so many nights crying, hating who I'd become.

I had internal bleeding with blood clots on the brain. I was completely blind and deaf. I had a heart attack and a stroke.

Things have changed. Now it's not the outward appearance, it's the inward man that I'm trying to change. And that's the message I bring to the people.

I wish I had come along when the studios were making those big musical pictures. It would be great to do re-makes of some of the old ones like 'Porgy and Bess' or 'Showboat.' I'd love to do 'em.

I was young and irresponsible, a silly woman laden with sin, not caring for anything except fame and fortune and self. But I have lived seeking truth in Jesus Christ and found it has made me free.

People think stars never have any problems or cares. That's bull. Why would we show any more than one mask to the public. There's a whole lotta things I've done that I don't want to think about. But I bring it all right out when I need it for a role.
