First prize! Who woulda thought?

I had been performing since I was 5, so it wasn't like I hadn't been on a stage before. I was always older than my age. That's my nature. I've always been a kind of mature kid.

My brother, Mario, is in show business and so are all my cousins on my dad's side. We come from a family of musicians. My grandmother's sister in Puerto Rico plays five instruments.

I play piano and write better than I can sing.

It's going to be diverse, but I think it will have a unified thread throughout. It's very high-grade, contemporary pop R&B. Some of it will be jazz-edged, some of it will be rock-edged. We have some young rappers on a few tracks but it's not a rap record. It's a record record.

I like to go see my friends who are not famous or well known in the industry. I like to support them and go see their work. I'm their biggest fan.

I knew early in life that I wanted a show business career.

I knew people would be saying mean things about me copying Donna and trying to follow in her footsteps by using her producer, but by the time Flashdance had come out I had established my own identity. I wasn't worried about people saying I was just a Donna copy.

My fans are grown now. They are not expecting me to do the bubblegum pop I did 20 years ago, even though it was pretty substantive. It was saying more than bubblegum pop says today. I am continuing where I left off.

We were playing stereotypes, true, but they were real, so they're no longer stereotypes!

I started feeling, Wow!, They're calling me to audition instead of me having to knock on their door.

The music industry had virtually blacklisted me.

When I act, I act. When I sing, I sing. I don't put one over the other. Entertaining is what I do best.

We are a musical family, and it keeps us close. A lot of jamming went on at home.

Next stop, Carnegie Hall!

It's important for me to get back to my fans here and around the world. I feel very, very blessed that so many people have continued to write me and to pour out their love for me and my work.

I'm not a fighter. People think I am, but I'm not. I just talk a lot.

I liked performing, but not the struggle.

I didn't have to go to school, graduate and then go, What am I going to do? I knew from the beginning.

I'm a woman with a mission. I've learned to believe in myself, my vision and to do things the way I want them done.
