She tells Sister 2 Sister magazine, "At some point it's coming. When? I have no idea. He (Dupri) has been past ready. He's just waiting for me; I'm the one holding up the whole thing.

"Everyone tells me that there will never be a good time, that I will always be busy, but I just think when the stars are aligned it will happen."
