I just figure if it has my name on it, and I want to make people feel good about wearing it, I can't pass it off.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If I put my name on something, I'm going to be involved. I'm not just going to put my name on it and not pay attention.
I can't bring out something I've already worn. I want to make sure I don't look down. I want people to say, 'Man, he looks good'.
There's no point having something worn on your body - that's a big ask - unless you can give people something they really couldn't get otherwise. It has to be qualitatively better for it to be worn.
Last year we had so many people coming in and out they didn't bother to sew their names on the backs of the uniforms. They just put them there with Velcro.
I really didn't want to have my name on the center, because it just seemed like it was too much of a personal thing.
I know a lot of celebrities who are perfectly happy to put their name to something and then leave it at that because the money is good, but I need to have complete control over how something is going to look if my name is going to be attached to it.
My fashion philosophy is that if I like it, I wear it.
I don't tell anybody else what to wear. I would never dream of it.
My fans kept asking where they could get clothes like 'Destiny's Child's', so it was only natural for us to do a clothing line. I was adamant about not putting my name on something that I didn't love.
I never want to put my name on something that I don't love or wouldn't wear myself.
