• After diagnosed that she has breast cancer: “I have no intention of letting this news get me down. I'm a fighter by nature and nothing will ever change that."
• "I had a great grandfather who was always there for us. He was strong and charming. Because of him I learned that there are also nice guys in the world."
• "I have a lot of respect for her. If my mother dies, my world will break down. She teached me about life, no matter what."
• "Once someone asked me three words that best describe me and I said 'Loud, Louder, and Loudest.- Anastacia, when asked to describe her voice.'"
• "I'm not a big singer and a small talker. I'm the whole package."
• "I was told that I needed to look a certain way, to sound a certain way, to move a certain way and all I wanted to do was just sing. I couldn't understand why this was such an issue."
• "I've worked with people who tried to get me to sing like Celine Dion or LeAnn Rimes, but it didn't sound right -- it was like taking away my character."
• On the most rocking thing she's done: "I filled my tour manager's bed with whipped cream, yoghurt and tampons...but I'm so un-rock n roll I even cleaned it up."
• On Posh and Becks: I look at them and think, 'See, that's the way it should be."
