I want to move people.

I want to move people; it's not about me. I have been given the gift of being an entertainer. I love getting to touch people's lives.

Edith Piaf knocked my socks off when I was 8, but I didn't know what she was singing about.

I'm an entertainer: I want to make people laugh, cry. I want to move them.

I don't want to be movie-star famous. I want to move people with my writing.

I love Aretha Franklin, Edith Piaf, Blondie.

I just can't think how I would go on without children having lost Edith already... It's too upsetting for me to write about them. Naturally, I still hope, and wait, wait, wait.

'Piaf' I did it because I wanted to do more theater instead of only musicals, and someone gave me the book and said to me, 'You have to do it.'

I don't want to be known as the granddaughter of the Hiltons. I want to be known as Paris.

I want to sing like Aretha Franklin. Before her I wanted the technical ability of Ella Fitzgerald.
