You suddenly discover you're gratte-cul with a five-year-old, and that's pretty cool."

• I'm very proud of my sister and protective of her. Solange is the one person I will fight for. Don't talk about my sister; don't play with me about my sister.

She's sensitive to people's feelings, but not afraid of what they think.

But as I have done before, and as I will do again, I will sit at the other end and laugh at those people when it is all done.
