Oh, I’m not sure about that. I’ve been to the Oscars five times.

It was definitely very different. For me, it was glamorous. A lot of people hated it.

Of course not. This year, my husband, Rene, is going to wear the white hat.

The first year, I did 200 shows, five nights a week. I couldn’t talk to my husband or son. Two days of taking a break vocally.

I don’t talk at all. My husband and I communicate on the phone without me talking. [ She starts tapping the phone .] Did you hear that? How many hits mean different things. One means yes, two means no. But I’m not going to tell you all our secret things.

I finish the show at 10:30 at night. By the time I take a shower, I have my little snack, I do my drive back home, I never arrive before midnight. I love to sleep late. I can go to bed at 5 a.m. and wake up at 2 p.m.

Actually, my 6-year-old son has the same hours as us. Isn’t that amazing?

He’s home-schooled. His teacher comes at 3:30 in the afternoon.

He loves heavy rock and the Doors. It’s the first song he hummed to me. [ She sings: “Hello, I love you, won’t you tell me your name?” ] I think it comes from the videogames. The Wii is the hottest thing on our TV right now.

My best friend in the world, Robin, waited in line at 4:30 in the morning.
