The world is full of poetry. The air is living with its spirit and the waves dance to the music of its melodies and sparkle in its brightness.

One of my most sentimental items is my grandmother's engagement ring that my mom gave me a few years ago. It's a Victorian-style setting that's closed in the back so it doesn't sparkle the way diamonds do now. I wear it as a pendant.

It's funny. When I saw the script in my inbox and it said 'Sparkle ' I thought 'For real? It's really called 'Sparkle?'' I was wondering too how does 'Jordin Sparks as Sparkle' sound?

'Sparkle' fell into my lap. I had heard a little bit about it that it was being redone in early 2011. I was just kind of like 'Oh that would be really cool ' and not really thinking too much about it and then it came through my agency. I read it I fell in love with the script and I went in to audition.

People are like stained - glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.
