When people don't know me any more or want my autograph, then I'll think about retiring.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The fact that people actually want my autograph is crazy.
To be honest, I still feel like I haven't scratched the surface of where I want to be. If someone asked me for an autograph, I'd be like, 'Me? I haven't done anything yet !' I have much more to offer the world.
One of the sad things about retiring is that you just become increasingly irrelevant. The world flows around you, and you don't seem to be impacting it any longer.
The people who ask me for my autograph are the people who've put me here today, and you can't afford to forget that.
I don't ever want to be famous. I never want to live that life. I genuinely hate the fact that I would be stopped for a picture or an autograph all the time.
Why retire from something if you're loving it so much and enjoying it so much, and you're blessed with another group of people to work with like the gang on 'Hot in Cleveland?' Why would I think of retiring? What would I do with myself?
And as long as people want to hear me sing, I don't know why I'd retire.
When you do something that you like, and you think you can keep doing it, you don't think about retiring.
I'm not retiring.
Hold on to that. You have an autograph. I'm going to be famous some day.
