Quote

As far as criticism, I don't mind critics. I mean, I wrote for 'Rolling Stone' for a hot minute. I like criticism. I enjoy criticism. The thing I don't like is cruelty for cruelty's sake. You don't have to be a jerk to say something negative. You can say something in the negative sense and have class.

I love criticism just so long as it's unqualified praise.

I don't let negative criticism, for the most part, bother me.

I like criticism. It makes you strong.

I can't control the criticism. It's something you certainly don't appreciate, but by the same token, everybody is entitled to their opinion.

I don't care about the critics.

People and what they say don't bother me like they used to. When I was younger, I really couldn't take it because I couldn't understand where the criticism was coming from.

I don't care what the critics say or think because I care for and love my fans.

I've probably put up with more criticism than a lot of people out there. At the end of the day, you block out everything, especially with your personal life.
