Living in Maryland, I saw that the opportunities were far greater in California than back home.

There's nothing better than that feeling of new chemistry when you're so into someone, and you could care less about what anyone else thinks... and there's butterflies! It's a real feeling that people experience.

When it comes to my career and investing into myself, I'm going to be very particular and meticulous about how I'm doing things so that I can reach the level of success that I want. I'm also going to take some chances, because who better for me to invest in than myself?
Christine Flores -
I go in full with my heart.

I've always loved Jennifer Lopez, and I think, as an entertainer, she is a great example of a strong woman that is also very levelheaded and cool and produces her own content.
Christine Flores -
There are a lot of options when it comes between music and acting. For me, because I'm so passionate about my music career, you have to be extremely passionate when you have opportunities like films and real money actually coming to you compared to with music.
Christine Flores -
I make a lot of my own clothes. I don't like wearing the same thing everybody else wears.

My real last name is Flores, and Milian is actually my mom's maiden name. So it's not made up, which is cool; it runs in the family. And it actually worked out better for my career to have the last name Milian, because Flores kept me in a little box, and no one really associated me with the last name Flores.

When it comes to brands and having the opportunity to be an entrepreneur, social media has really become a great outlet for people to become their own boss.

I've always loved 'Umbrella.' Funny enough, my ex-husband wrote that, and I'm not saying it was meant for me or anything - people will start twisting this - it is Rihanna's song! But I've always loved it.

When its time to go off to work, or work out, I have a great support system: a great nanny and friends who offer to help out whenever they can.
Christine Flores -
It's weird what a last name will do. I changed it to 'Milian,' and next thing you know, I was working and getting auditions and stuff, and it was crazy.

I would love to do an indie film, as I've grown to have a more serious side.

I signed to Def Jam and within two months, I heard that Ja Rule was looking for someone to do a song with.

Women need each other. Be there for each other, and don't feel threatened.

My 'Chili Palmer' was my mother. Her name is Carmen Milian, and she's my manager. Before getting into music, we actually educated ourselves, and I went to college for music as a business and learned the business side, and she read a lot of books.
Christine Flores -
I have two sisters, so there is the three of us, and we're very close. We've been best friends since I pronounced it when I was ten and they were four and five.

My mom was a cheerleader and had me as a teenager. I remember her giving me some pom-poms and teaching me how to do some splits when I was 3 or 4.
Christine Flores -
My mom has gone out of her way in her personal life. She's been with me on the road. She's had to deal with people giving her the 'that's the mom' and arguing. Just little things as a businesswoman.

It wasn't until I was about 17 or 18 years old that I got into music.
Christine Flores

You have to be a strong person to be in music, especially.
Christine Flores -
Even if I don't have the money to take vocal lessons, I'll practice in the house by myself singing out loud.
Christine Flores -
I don't like peanut butter and jelly that much.

I've got Christian Louboutin' s 6 1/4-inch Equestria boots. I wear them so much, I turned the red bottoms brown!
