Beyoncé Knowles
Quotes:
I'd done a couple of
sitcoms earlier on, but I wasn't very good in them, so I thought that
meant I couldn't act.
The
great thing about McDonald's is that they have a lot of different things
on the menu. I love their salads.
You
know what, I'm very attracted to someone who makes me laugh and is that
charming. Really, I could be charmed by anyone. I'm just a sucker for
somebody that is charming.
There's plenty of days when I'm like 'Oh
God, why?' But that's just life. It's every job, not just mine. Every
moment is not perfect. But it's definitely more good times than bad. You
can't even compare. And when I'm on stage it feels incredible. There are
certain nights that you know you hit that crazy note and you know that
spin spinned extra fast. And you look out and people are just into it
and you've worked so hard and now it's paying off and you can see why
you dedicated your life to this.
It doesn't annoy me, no, because I respect
J-Lo. I like her, I think she's great. And I know that I'm over a decade
younger than her, it's so flattering that I'm so young and people are
comparing me to someone who has accomplished so much. But I don't think
I'm like anyone else and really, I'd rather not be compared to anyone
else. - on comparisions to J-Lo
I wrote that because, at the time, I'd
gained some weight and the pressure that people put you under, the
pressure to be thin, is unbelievable. I was just 18 and you shouldn't be
thinking about that. You should be thinking about building up your
character and having fun and the song was just telling everyone just
forget what people are saying, you're bootylicious. That's all. It's a
celebration of curves and a celebration of women's bodies. - on her song
'Bootylicious'
Who I am on stage is very, very different to
who I am in real life. But I don't see that having a sexy image when you
are on stage means that you don't love God. No one knows what I'm really
like from that. I like to walk around with bare feet and I don't like to
comb my hair. I'm always so glammed up and so diva on stage and that's
what they see. People don't understand that... No one knows my personal
relationship with God and it's not up to me to prove that to anyone.
For me, it's about the way I carry myself
and the way I treat other people. My relationship and how I feel about
God and what He does for me, is something deeply personal. It's where I
came from, my family, I was brought up in a religious household and
that's very important to me. But I understand the mentality of people. I
know that people judge others based on certain things. I know how
celebrities really are. I've done it too. You meet people - rock stars,
rappers, whoever - who you have seen on television and you go into their
homes and they are regular people, just like everyone else.
Not because one person wants to go solo. Or
not because we don't like each other. Or because we're not selling
records anymore. But because it has to end at a certain point. (When
asked about the disbanding of Destiny's Child - June 2005)
We all have our imperfections. But I'm human
and you know, it's important to concentrate on other qualities besides
outer beauty.
One of the things that kept me out of
trouble was doing something creative - creativity can't be judged.
Kelly Rowland Quotes:
Freddy vs. Jason actually kind of landed in
my lap. I went out for the audition, and I think two hours later my
agent called me back and said 'Kelly, you got the part!'
I ain't gonna get this,
it's a horror movie, it's hard to act scared.
I
feel like, if it's supposed to happen, then it'll happen. God will send
me somebody special, whenever the timing is right, so I'm just patient.
I
love a guy that can be emotional and get in touch with his feminine
side. It's really sweet. It says a lot about a man to me.
I
started crying, because there's nothing like hearing that the artist who
originally did the song likes your version.
I'm
just steadily building myself up as Kelly Rowland, not just Kelly
Rowland of Destiny's Child, which is a blessing to be able to do that.
Michelle Williams
Quotes:
Beyonce and Kelly to me are like sisters.
In ten years, I would like to live on a
river and to be known to be in one of the most succesful singing groups.
