I was a spiritual kid.
You’ve got to find ways to breathe while you’re dancing so that when it comes time for you to stop and sing again, you have it. To prepare, I do a lot of aerobic activity. Many times at the gym, people will look at me because I’ll be on the treadmill humming.
I’m constantly learning, and that is the greatest gift of life in my opinion – to always be learning and growing.
Some relationships aren’t meant to be Great Love; they’re meant to be like a hot fudge sundae – enjoyable but not something you can acually live on.
Equality is truly sweet.
All my life, I’d been on the receiving end of my mother’s endless tenderness and vigilant care. Being allowed to care for her during her recovery was a gift – the most rewarding experience in my life.
The lasting legacy of the Cooter Smash is that I’m the first to know when it’s going to rain. That’s right. I both sing and predict the weather with my hoo hoo.
Oatmeal tastes so good on its own, you don’t even need to add sugar.
I’m sick of people who’ve never been to church telling me that church is full of hypocrites, and people who’ve never read the Bible telling me that it’s baloney.
A nice pair of Jimmy Choos never hurt anyone.
Life’s too short. I’m not!
I want people to understand that there is a group of Christians out there who want to be more open and understanding and tolerant and loving of all kinds of people, even the people that don’t believe in God at all.
I want to be a Christian like Christ – loving and accepting of other people.
We are what we eat, so I eat as many veggies as I can!
Making fun of anyone’s size, height, scarring, anything like that equals dumb.
I don’t understand what the big deal is with gay marriage. Get over it, people.
I’m an actress and a singer and I’m also a Christian. We’re not all crazy right-wingers. I just want to be like Jesus, forgiving and loving and nonjudgmental, accepting of everyone even if they don’t agree.
They had me all happy, singing. It was very awkward. I think the writers are frantically planning something appropriate to honor him, but we don’t know what.
Broadway is such a diverse community. Everybody knows how I believe, and everyone believes, and it’s not a big deal. But in Hollywood, if you talk about politics – especially if you’re a Republican – or spirituality, it’s just not something people want to hear about.
I’m finally dating. It’s fun.
