I did live over in the U.K. for a while, so I guess I'm just naturally a Brit at heart.
I think people will slip on nutrition and think that you can eat whatever you want and then work out. But the two go hand in hand, so I think it's really important to know what you're putting into your body and give it nourishment.
I actually crashed the car I learned to drive on. It was a friend of mine's car.
I'm careful with my heart. I don't take crap from no one these days. I put my foot down. Being a woman, you deserve heaven and earth.
I love food so much, all I have to do is look at it and I gain 5 pounds.
I can't spread myself too thin to where I have nothing left to give!
For right now, it really is the end. Hopefully in 10 years we'll all be married and have babies.
Holiday traditions in my family are really it's all about the kids.
Ever since we were little, we were so on fire for our dreams. We never let anyone blow our flames out.
I'll be stuntin like my daddy.
No matter the situation, I stay focused and motivated on my goals because that's the way I was raised.
Being single is about celebrating and appreciating your own space that you're in. I couldn't have lived alone before. I always needed someone to share my space but now I like being by myself. If I want to be with people then I see my friends; if I want a date then I'll have one.
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.
Don't look at someone else and want to be them. Search within yourself and find out who you are and be someone positive.
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.
Honesty, like my mama always says, is always the best policy.
I started crying, because there's nothing like hearing that the artist who originally did the song likes your version.
I think in L.A. everybody has a really cool flare, trendy style here. I think I kinda adapt be it I'm a little more trendy in L.A. Somewhere in New York, I could literally sit at a café and have a cappuccino and watch people walk by and it's like a fashion show to me. Compared to somewhere like Miami where I literally wear beachwear all day and I can walk around barefoot. My style is consistent. It may bend a little bit according to cities, but that's about it.
I love doing collaborations - it's always good to do something that's out the box.
I love finding new talent, to be completely honest, and my opportunity that I got to do 'X Factor U.K.' was just incredible. I will never forget it.
I had to work 10 times harder. People expect so much of you, because they want to see if you can strive and stand on your own.
What I did was go into the studio and make music that I love. Make music that when you hear it, it feels good. Whether it was urban inspired, dance inspired, HipHop inspired or it just feels good period.
I'm kind of a germ freak. When I get on a plane, I spray my seat and everything with Lysol Disinfectant Spray.
I want to tell stories and make people feel good. That's when music is at its finest.
When you make pain look this good it never wears out.
Television remains an incredible tool when it comes to ensure the best promo, but one thing was always clear to me, I didn't want reality stars; I wanted stars.
I am not perfect! When I was a little girl I thought I was ugly. My nose was too big for my face.
I don't get hit on enough.
Argh... I could be better with my time. I like to be punctual, but I could be better.
I do sing in the car. I actually sing Britney Spears songs in the car - me and a close friend of mine. She lives in West Palm and I live in Miami, and when we're going back and forth to see each other, we sing: 'Oh, Baby Baby.' We sing all these 1990s songs. We're like two 14-year-old kids just having a good time.
You're only as strong as your weakest member; you're only as positive as your most negative friend
To achieve anything great in life you must be willing to make a sacrifice.
I went my direction, my direction is whatever I want to go.
Being single is about celebrating and appreciating your own space that you're in.
I think the most beautiful thing is that we're not parting because there were problems. We're parting because we're celebrating each others' growth.
I think it's really important to know what you're putting into your body and give it nourishment.
There is no place for fear. Stay informed, but also be smart enough to decipher what is noise and what is real. Always remembering that love can cast out all hate. I have made a commitment to teach my son love, self-respect, the way of the world and boundaries.
I think people should find themselves being entertained by something that's worth being entertained by.
I really, really love to move. You know what I mean? I mean, it's not a workout, but I absolutely love to do it, and that's performing, which is very close to doing Zumba. When you're onstage and you're moving everything, every single part of your body, it's actually working and active to the tips of your fingers. You're burning a hell of a lot of calories. And I think that's what people always look forward to - they want to know how many calories they've burned, and it's really important to actually know that and know your nutrition even more.
Judge me if you want to. And as a matter of fact, it won't even count, 'cause the only person who can judge is God.
When you want something bad enough, you work your butt off for it.
I ain't gonna get this, it's a horror movie, it's hard to act scared.
I remember going to Europe and one makeup artist made me look pink, then she tried to correct it but turned me green! I had to learn how to do my own makeup.
I just love clothes! I'm a girl who loves clothes, accessories, shoes, bags and jewelry.
I see the beauty in boxing. It teaches me strength physically, but mostly mentally. I had to learn my strength, because for so long I could have been tougher than I was.
I think nowadays we're often sidetracked by what somebody got popular doing with all due respect to what they do, but it should be about the talent.
I feel like if we're blessed enough to be given talent, to be given an opportunity, then why not take that opportunity and make it for someone's betterment you know?
I felt like there was a void in the marketplace in girl groups. Musically, there is something truly exciting about harmonies in one song. A group has more to offer.
Clean up. Clean up, everybody, everywhere. Clean up. Clean up, everybody do your share.
I got into cooking just by watching my mom and my aunts and my great-aunts and actually one of my cousins who has her own catering business in Atlanta, Georgia. So everybody around me really cooked and it was just all these different styles and backgrounds and cuisines of cooking that I found so interesting.
Kids are so busy with different things and are occupied with other things, so when they do find themselves to be creative, it's often that they can be creative in the kitchen and they get the opportunity to bond with family, friends and talk. It just opens up their lines of communication. We need that now for these young people.
I just feel like Brits are honest - period. And that's what I like.
I would never become a size zero. I work out because I want to look good naked, simple as that.
Life is really a blessing to be able to do what you love everyday, to learn about yourself. For me it's been about becoming a woman, and I've really enjoyed that experience.
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.
You know how the Beatles broke off - they all did their solo projects and they came back together and they were even stronger!
We all have different things that we go through in our everyday life, and it's really important to know just at the end of the day, it doesn't matter what you face, you know, that you're going to win at the end of the day. You got to believe in yourself. You got to believe in God, know that He's going to get you through it.
Coming into the music industry, even when I was a kid, one thing I learned is timing is everything. You being prepared is everything.
I have a great female support system. We encourage each other because we all face some of the same difficulties. We all experience mommy guilt. It's always great to have an uplifting support system.
I don't allow the industry or anybody to put me in a box. I did that for a minute and I was like, 'I can't do this anymore.'
I typically like to train with the mentality of a high-performance athlete. I put in the work and do what it takes to be successful. A typical workout routine consists of sprint-based training combined with strength moves two days a week. Along with the balance of total-body workouts that challenge my core and shape my body twice weekly.
I have to see myself naked! That’s all that counts. If I’m not happy with my naked body, who will be?
I always hope that my music can inspire someone, the same way other artists inspire me.
I love a nicely groomed guy who smells good. That's important.
The only thing I really love is Fiji water. That's like the only crazy request - I don't like any other water.
When I get married, it will be for life - divorce is not an option.
Never give up on your dream... because you never know what the Lord can bless you with.
