"I'd been a wedding singer through college, but after a few years of doing my best renditions of jazz standards to clinking glasses and the sound of forks on salad, I thought, 'Oh God, if this is all I do, I'll never be able to live with myself.'"
"My younger sister had kids before I did, and managed to earn a master's degree while raising them as a single parent. Now she's a brilliant second-grade teacher. I'm in awe of her ability to juggle everything and still be a great mother."
"I'm a mom - I'm lucky if I get to shower in the morning. Luckily, nail polish stays on my toes. I've been so bad on the upkeep, though."
"For me, 'Rent' was all about coming out of myself, finding out who I was, learning the power I could have as a performer."
"My biggest project right now is trying to be a really great mom and learning how to balance family and career. I'm just trying to spend as much time with my family as I can."
"I would love to play 'Funny Girl' or 'Evita, ' but I idolize the women who have played those parts. I don't know if there needs to be another version of those shows."
"Everybody thinks it's going to be so glamorous, so cool, you're on 'Glee, ' you know, a hit show or whatever."
"As a mom, I don't have much time for beauty."
"I always use my husband's cocoa butter stuff. He has amazing skin!"
"I love working with a cast and a group of people every day, which is different than recording because you're usually pretty isolated and alone. They serve as a good balance for each other."
