" Gum: &amp;quot;I always have sugarless Dentyne Ice with me or in the car.&amp;quot; Melodies by MJB sunglasses: &amp;quot;Sunglasses are a signature look of mine. If you go back to any of my older photos, or any pictures of me now, you&amp;#039;ll see me in sunglasses \u2014 really good ones. It&amp;#039;s my trademark. I wore these on American Idol this year.&amp;quot; Wallet: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve been carrying a Louis Vuitton wallet for a very long time. I keep photos of my children and family in it.&amp;quot; Book: &amp;quot;I read Joyce Meyer&amp;#039;s Starting Your Day Right each morning. It&amp;#039;s a book of daily devotions that helps me in my everyday life.&amp;quot; Lip gloss: &amp;quot;I normally have either MAC Lipglass in Lust or Lustreglass in Love Nectar \u2014 I just love the color on my skin; it makes me look like I&amp;#039;m not wearing anything \u2014 and Lip Butter lip balm by Carol&amp;#039;s Daughter.&amp;quot; Scarf: &amp;quot;I keep a Gucci scarf around my neck or in my bag.&amp;quot; Eyeliner: &amp;quot;MAC makes the eye pencil that I love. I like having a smoky eye.&amp;quot; My Life perfume: &amp;quot;Women were my inspiration for this scent. It has a softness to it because sometimes we feel soft, but there&amp;#039;s also a fruitiness for when you&amp;#039;re feeling edgy and want someone to want to, like, lick your arm. There&amp;#039;s a toughness, too, which are the wood notes \u2014 it shows people that we&amp;#039;re the full package.&amp;quot; Earrings: &amp;quot;I always have a pair of hoops with me just in case I need to throw on some jewelry.&amp;quot; A pen: &amp;quot;Of course a pen \u2014 I just pack whatever pen I can find. I&amp;#039;m cool.&amp;quot; BlackBerry Bold: &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s the &amp;#039;new phone,&amp;#039; and I just love it because it&amp;#039;s convenient. I don&amp;#039;t want to have a big old cell phone in my bag, you know?&amp;quot; The Bag: &amp;quot;My Gucci bag is a one-of-a-kind chocolate croc that has room for everything. But if I&amp;#039;m going to dinner, I&amp;#039;ll use a clutch or a small Pucci purse with only my perfume, phone, a credit card, some money, and a lip gloss tucked in it.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
