"You can't appreciate the good times without the bad ones."
"I wrote "Bootylicious" because, at the time, I’d gained some weight and the pressure that people put you under, the pressure to be thin, is unbelievable. I was just 18 and you shouldn’t be thinking about that.

It’s a celebration of curves and a celebration of women’s bodies."
