The 15 Grammy Award winner shares some priceless insight with us ahead of the Hitman: David Foster & Friends concert.

I like to joke that my tattoo [on his wrist] says “D” for Divorce. So that when I meet a girl, I can put my arm around her, glimpse my tattoo and go like, “OK, gotta go!”

I love great voices. And great voices are attracted to me.

You’re a beast [to Ashanti].

I wouldn’t know what to do if someone like Britney Spears came up to me because, well, I love her music but I don’t understand it.

I plan to come to Asia every year until I can’t walk.

I’m getting married on the 11th of November, 2011—to Ashanti.

If I find someone great, they would never be able to get rid of me.

I know there’s a lot of controversy going on over Charice’s relationship with her father, but anybody who loses their parents, whether or not they get along with them, will be devastated. They’re still your parents.

Some of the most pivotal moments in my career were The Bodyguard, Unforgettable, Celine Dion and Chicago.

I'm a genius.

David Foster will perform tonight alongside Ashanti, Philip Bailey and Michael Bolton at the Hitman: David Foster & Friends concert.

The world’s smallest interchangeable-lens camera is fun and ridiculously easy to use, but it’ll burn a hole in your pocket.

Pros

• It’s hard to imagine a camera getting any smaller. At 98 by 57.5 by 31 millimeters, it looks like it could’ve come right out of a Happy Meal box.

• Presumably because of the lack of surface area, the inventors have found unique ways to pack in features such as the scene modes toggle, which is a cute little numbered knob on the front. And when activated, the flash pops out on an extension arm—Inspector Gadget style.

• When a point-and-shoot like this claims to be comparable to a DSLR, it usually means the physical controls take up a good part of the hardware, leaving behind a miniscule screen. However, we’re very happy with the Q’s three-incher.

• You can opt for toy lenses such as the fisheye and telephoto, which add some creative flare to your snaps.

Cons

• No space for video-editing magic here; you can’t even adjust focus once you’ve begun filming.

• At about 200 shots per charge, the battery power isn’t DSLR quality.

• The camera on its own is just a hop, skip and a jump away from a four-digit sum. Add $389 for a standard zoom lens and you could easily have bought yourself a real DSLR instead.

• The camera’s sensor is half the size of most compact cameras, including the newly-launched Nikon J1; but at least its high ISO compensates for that.
