All I can do is leave it in God's hands and hope that my fans feel where I'm coming from.

Because I came out as a singer, I took the time to get an acting coach.
Aaliyah

I began to work the stage and get the audience into it. I also learned how to have fun out there. It is something I will never forget.
Aaliyah

I don't feel I made any sacrifices at all. I'm doing my best to juggle.
Aaliyah

I don't think about my previous success. I'm happy that the work I've done has been very successful.
Aaliyah

I don't want to abandon one work for the other, and I don't think I need to sacrifice anything to put my all into either one of them.
Aaliyah

I have the time needed to support the album and tour.
Aaliyah

I know that people think I'm sexy and I am looked at as that. It is cool with me. It's wonderful to have sexy appeal. If you embrace it, it can be a very beautiful thing.
Aaliyah

I see myself as sexy. If you are comfortable with it, it can be very classy and appealing.
Aaliyah

I stay true to myself and my style, and I am always pushing myself to be aware of that and be original.

I think it's important to take a break, you know, from the public eye for a while, and give people a chance to miss you. I want longevity. I don't want to get out there and run myself ragged and spread myself thin.
Aaliyah

I want people to remember me as a full on entertainer and a good person.
Aaliyah

I'm a total performer.
Aaliyah

I'm involved in some action scenes, so they'll train me for that. I'll be working with my acting coach to prepare for my character.
Aaliyah

I'm the interpreter. I'm the one who takes your words and brings them to life. I was trained to sing and dance and laugh, and that's what I want to do.
Aaliyah

If I don't think about it, it won't drive me crazy.
Aaliyah

If you want to go to the mall, you have to take security. But it's always cool. The kids are amazing.
Aaliyah

In film, you are a totally different person than in the video.
Aaliyah

It was always part of the plan to move into acting.
Aaliyah

It's hard to say what I want my legacy to be when I'm long gone.
