Kelis : (3)

" As a child, I’d help my mum cook, and it was ridiculous – she had the correct gadget or utensil for everything. ‘Stop! Don’t use that, I have exactly the right utensil.’ After I left home, I survived on cup-a-meals and never saw myself as being like her. Now I’ve become her. " - Kelis

" For me, saying ‘I’m bossy’ is a cute, tongue-in-cheek way of saying that I’m in control of my life. " - Kelis

" Am I R&B because I’m black? Am I pop because I have a song called ‘Milkshake’? Or can I just be who the hell I am? Good Lord, people make it seem like we’re doing heart transplants here, but we’re just making music! " - Kelis
