“My mother was a very, very funny, outrageous, outspoken person, and she never edited me. Her whole thing in my life was if anybody had a problem with me, tell them to go to hell.”

“The funny response to 'One Mississippi' continues to be that people don't know what is true and what's fiction.”

“It was a free-for-all with music when I was growing up. My mother was a huge music fanatic so I was listening to everything from country to heavy metal to Indigo Girls to Elton John. I guess when I was really young I didn't like Willie Nelson, and she obviously loved him. Now I do too, I'm so thankful to her for playing his music nonstop.”

“Reality in America is heavily scripted, very edited, and they have a say in what goes on TV and what doesn't.”

“This is where you see the truth of entertainment, because it is not edited. You see it on stage as it is happening. Even if we fall down or forget our words, it's a part of live entertainment.”

“I would never be comfortable with an edited name. I have never hidden the fact that I am of Indian origin.”
