Justin Bieber - Shawty Mane is just like a funny character...You know Justin Bieber is not a rapper, and it would just be lame if I came out rapping. It's lame anyway because I'm like a pop singer, but I thought it was funny, I just did it as a joke. It wasn't like anything serious...I thought it was fun, I like rapping.

Jay-Z - It's not rap anymore at that point. I didn't mean it. I said some great things about him in the [Decoded] book that I have coming out -- he's gonna be like, embarrassed. I said some really great things about him in the book and about people's perception of him and how he's from East Oakland. It is what it is.

George Bush - He called me a racist. And I didn't appreciate it then. I don't appreciate it now. It's one thing to say, 'I don't appreciate the way he's handled his business.' It's another thing to say, 'This man's a racist.' I resent it, it's not true.

Lil Wayne - Well ain’t nothing going on in here but the time, which seems like it’s taking forever. I’m trying to make the most out of every second tho, mentally. There’s some pretty cool people in here. Even though this isn’t a cool place to be. I’ve learned plenty already and the best lesson is to not come back.

Lil Wayne - You fans are more than amazing, and I will [go] to the end of the world for your love. This isn't the last of weezythanxyou.com I will continue to thank you when I'm home.

Rihanna - She's, like, my female crush, Cheryl Cole. I mean, if you've ever seen her, she's like the most beautiful woman ever put together. I'm still upset about that!

Fergie - Well, I’m not claiming to be sober. I think that that would be misleading. I drink alcohol. My father has a vineyard, and [the wine is] really delicious, by the way. Anyway, for most addicts, they would advise never to have any sort of substance. I just have my own journey, and I am very blessed to this day to be alive.

Mariah Carey - I'm not going to impose pink on a girl. Do you think I'm really going to go that hard with it? That's how you get the exact opposite.

Clinton Fires Back - In 2006, Fox News' Chris Wallace thought he could pull a fast one on Bill Clinton during an interview that was supposed to be about Clinton's Global Initiative. Two questions into the interview, Wallace asked Clinton about his not having caught Osama bin Laden during his presidency. Wallace got creamed. "At least I tried," Clinton went on to say. "That's the difference [between] me and some. [The Bush administration] had eight months to try...and didn't.”

Bill Clinton - This guy's smart and he has ability and he's got a new chance now and I hope that this is not just something to brand him as a cool guy but that it'll never happen again.

R. Kelly - So we kicked it for a minute, I said, 'Dude, we need to do an album.' See, 'The Best Of Both Worlds' was for me and Pac at first. 'I Wish' was gonna be the first song we were gonna do."

13 / 20

Soulja Boy - Now that I'm in the position I'm in now I like to take all my creative ideas and put 'em on the internet for my fans to interact with. Give 'em something to do.

Janet Jackson - She's someone who has no time for niceties, really. That was a tough thing for me, to drop the 'please' and the 'thank you,' just trying to get into the role, get into her head and doing that at home and in my world, that was kind of tough, but eventually it happened.

Akon - When I was 17, I thought I was the flyest thing on the planet. Of course, I still had my African roots so I would wear dashikis that kinda matched my jeans.

Redman - I wish next term I could become vice-president of Def Jam. I would try to conduct business in a business manner, but I would also try to find that niche that Def Jam has been missing to control the whole artists and make all the artists happy.

16 / 20

Redman - It's not about sales no more, it's about a movement. Who's gonna follow that movement? Red and Meth are the smoking movement. Any time we drop an album, y'all should be at the f***ing store, whether you like it or not and buy the f***ing album.

T.I. - And remember … it doesn't matter how long it'll be before the next time you see me. What matters is that I'll be a better man before that time comes. The longer I sit, the smarter I get.

17 / 20

T.I. - I've been taking stock of myself and digesting everyone's comments and criticisms. Now it's my turn to express myself and take you into my mind. The real won't hate and the truth won't wait! If God is with me who can be against me.

Oprah Winfrey - I'm not even kind of a lesbian. And the reason why [the rumor] irritates me is because it means that somebody must think I'm lying. That's number one. Number two ... why would you want to hide it? That is not the way I run my life.

Oprah Winfrey - Thank God for makeup. The truth comes out when you're camping. You can't hide who you are in the wilderness.

Birdman - We in the Maybachs going to the hotel for a minute to see the kids then we on the jet after that. Then we gotta go to Arizona for a minute to check in cause he got a little paperwork out there. After that we gone come to L.A. for a minute then to Miami for this party.

MC Hammer - To me it's not a good question for a cat that's from the streets. I'm going to use an analogy to make things simple. If I walk past 5 dudes who call me a sucka and the 5th dude tries and gets knocked out, he can't be mad at me-he should be mad at the other 5 for not telling him I'm not a punk and getting him knocked out.
