I didn't think I was a famous singer. I didn't think I was a star or that I could make the waters part - just that singing was what I was going to do.
I had a moment - and I don't know if it was funny, necessarily, but I realized the effect I could have on people - when I was doing a production of 'The Little Prince,' and I played the snake.
I love who I am and I love my life, but if I could be someone else, I'd be Beyonce in two seconds.
'Catcher in the Rye' changed my life when I was a kid. I read it as I was a boy turning into a man, and I was so fascinated by the values. I believe in it.
I thought I was an old soul, and that I knew life, but then starting the real life, I figured I am completely new.
As a child, I loved being onstage. I loved singing, I loved the lights, I loved the adrenaline. I even loved learning lines. I was completely obsessive.
I have always tried to perform the music I love, and I think I am lucky because my preferences are often the ones of the public.
I love Toronto. I love it. I love Toronto. I love Canada. I can't wait to get back. Can't wait to have some Timbits.
I still sing because I love the sound of applause, because it's who I am, and because I still can.
I became a writer because I love books, and I believe in their power.
I love athletics. As an athlete, I like to believe I can still do the things I used to do when I was once young.
I love Central Park. I feel like I am somewhere else.
I just want to preach so bad I can hardly stand it. I love what I do.
I love to pitch things that I believe in and products that I love to use.
I love a bit of a sequin and a bead. I do, even though I usually wear trousers, when I put a frock on. I like a bead or a sequin.
I don't live in L.A. I actually live in Atlanta, Georgia. After I graduated from Spelman, I just stayed and never left. And I love it.
I love fashion. I always have. When I was a kid, I was in almost full-on costumes when I went to school, and I've retained a bit of that in my adulthood.
And just what would I gain if I go back to that place? I'll stop at a tree when I like it and I'll fly when I like it.How I live and where I live is up to me, got it? -Kagura
I have not become the artist I believe I am. I want to become a stadium act. I'm not done at all.
How do I know what I think until I see what I say?
I never thought I wouldn't succeed. Not because I thought I was good-looking - I just thought I would make it.
