This was everything

Even when you say the most simple shit, like ?I don?t know her? about Jennifer Lopez, it gets turned into a never-ending meme.

I really was trying to say something nice or say nothing at all. I really was.

That must be weird, everything being dissected the way it is with you
.

I try to stay away from it because you can?t drown in that. I don?t know how people read comments all the time and then survive.

How did you survive? I ask because a lot of the megastars who came up just a little bit before you, like George Michael and Whitney Houston, ultimately didn?t.


It?s really about a great support system and working with people who understand and try to create a good environment. Hopefully, those people will also understand stress is really a killer. When we have lost some of our greatest, it?s really taken a toll on me, as someone who grew up watching them and being inspired by them. You mentioned George Michael. I remember before my first album, even in high school, the Faith album, I looked at that and said, ?I want to make an album that crosses all these genres.? We had a lot of things in common in terms of record company political stuff. I remember this one dinner that we had. We were both talking about really difficult stuff that we?d been through. And when he passed away on that Christmas, I couldn?t believe it because I thought he would be able to be OK.

Why did you think that? She?s extremely sarcastic and has one of the best celebrity personalities. And her writing shows her intelligence..

You gotta get into some of her older interviews then, she?s everything. She did become somewhat distant but I think that?s because she wasn?t properly taking care of herself. These recent interviews>>>

Her earlier 90's interviews>>>>

By early 00's she used to ramble on a lot about a whole bunch of nothing but these recent interviews have been great
