"My parents wanted me to be a lawyer. But I don't think I would have been very happy. I'd be in front of the jury singing.

I was always a singer and a dancer, and I always wanted to be an actress. For me, it's all just one thing. I had a lot of dreams, a lot of things I wanted to do from the time I was real young, a real little girl and I just went after that.

I knew I wanted to be a dancer. I knew I needed to be a dancer. I maintained faith in myself and what I wanted to do.
If you focus on the money, you're not going to get anywhere.

You can want to be successful, but at the end of the day, if money is your motivation, if that's how shallow your outlook is on life, then you're going to be such an empty person.

Because there's nothing driving you from the inside - there's no passion."
