I was browsing and I found a chat transcript from MSN that I thought had some nice things about Sisqo. It was from 2001 so it's old but it had some things I didn't know about, so here it is.
Digital Dish Diva says: Sisqo, welcome to MSN Live! It's great to have you back.
Sisqo says: The Dragon's in the easy so.
Digital Dish Diva says: Sisqo, you're probably best known for the "Thong Song." Are girls still throwing underwear at you?
Sisqo says: (laughs!) First it was just the thongs, now it's the booties in the thongs.
Digital Dish Diva says: Let's get to those audience questions because we have a lot of them!
Digital Dish Diva says: Let's start with something easy. Zeus says: What does "Sisqo" mean?
Sisqo says: Nothin'. It's a made up name from my old neighborhood.
Digital Dish Diva says: And where is the old neighborhood?
Sisqo says: It's in Baltimore.
Sisqoandmyagogood2gether says: What was it like working with Mya, then watching her grow?
Sisqo says: Man, it was like kinda cool because when I first worked with Mya, she was shy and soft spoken. And even though she's still soft spoken her talent is being recognized around the world.
Digital Dish Diva says: You've been doing some acting lately.
sisqosweetie says: Do you prefer acting or singing and why?
Sisqo says: Singing is kind of second nature. Acting takes a lot more concentration. I don't prefer one over the other. I dig both of them.
thecivicshocker21 says: What other ways do you express yourself?
Sisqo says: Fashion.
Digital Dish Diva says: When is your new line coming out?
Sisqo says: I think we launch in the fall at the Magic Show in Vegas.

kinkichick says: What do you love most when making a video?
Sisqo says: The girls.
Digital Dish Diva says: Is it easier getting girls now?
Sisqo says: I always get girls, but it's definitely easier now.
caligurl1131 says: What is your least favorite part of being famous?
Sisqo says: Pressure of staying famous.
mega_luvs_sisqo says: Sisqo, why do you like dragons so much?
Sisqo says: Basically, the whole dragon theme is basically describing what clan I'm from. I'm from the Dru Hill Clan and I'm just representing them.
mzsweetness says: What's the difference in meaning to your first solo album and your sophomore solo album to you?
Sisqo says: The biggest difference is my first album was more Sisqo up Dru Hill and that's why it why it was more "ballady." My next album was more about just me and was more up-tempo.
luvaboy says: Hey, golden child who would you say is your biggest inspiration of your career?
Sisqo says: It changes every year. Last year was The Rock. This year is more like Jay Z and Eminem.
keyawarren says: What kind of message are you delivering off of this album?
Sisqo says: "Keep it Real."
Digital Dish Diva says: The new album is "Return of the Dragon."
Sweetiepie838says: Do you like the solo life better then the group life?
Sisqo says: No. I much prefer being with my boys.

Scorpio870 says: Sisqo, my name is Scorpio and I am one of the members of The Platinum Playas, I was just wondering, since you like to party a lot, how do you get your party on without being bugged by fans and being asked for autographs every time you hit the dance floor?
Sisqo says: Fans don't bug me. So when I do go to a party and I'm being asked for like attention from our fans, it normally doesn't bug me.
Sisqo says: There's enough thongs for everybody!
upscale_chic says: What's your favorite song on your new CD?
Sisqo says: It's a toss up between "Last Night" and "Infatuated."
Ruby_Red441 says: What's the biggest mistake you've ever made?
Sisqo says: It's kind of hard to remember my mistakes because I look at them as learning experiences instead of mistakes.
Roxyhurleychic4u says: How many tattoos do you have?
Sisqo says: Five and that's it. No more.
Digital Dish Diva says: What's the newest tattoo?
Sisqo says: Considering the last time I got a tattoo was almost 3 years ago, the one on my stomach.
Sisqofan_1 says: Sisqo, where did you learn how to dance?
Sisqo says: Streets of Baltimore.
candiejessica says: I know when you were younger you were in the church choir. Do you still do that?
Sisqo says: I don't really have much time to go to church, but I still have strong spirituality.
roxyhurleychic_4u says: Do you plan on doing something else in your lifetime?
Sisqo says: At the end of the day I'm going to retire from music and sit behind a desk or something. (laughs)
Digital Dish Diva says: Maybe sell insurance or something?
Sisqo says: No, definitely not sell insurance! Runnin' somethin'.
LilQueenBee says: Sisqo, do you think you will do another song with Lil' Kim?
Sisqo says: I doubt it. Not because I don't want to, but because my record company probably wouldn't let me, like they wouldn't let me be in the video. QueenDiva_Num1says: I haven't gotten the chance to get the new album, have you gotten to your roots, and put a gospel track on it?
Sisqo says: No, there's no gospel on the album, but there is a lot of biblical reference.

Sisqo says: Musically it was first Michael Jackson, then it was a group called Jodeci.
Sportyblonde_274 says: Did you have any previous jobs before singing?
Sisqo says: Yeah, I had a bunch of jobs. I used to work at a movie theater in concession. I had to sweep up the stadium at Baltimore Orioles Stadium. I worked at the Fudgery. I worked in a sub shop.
Digital Dish Diva says: What's your favorite sub?
Sisqo says: I like a Philly Hoagie or a Chicken Cheese Steak.
chatty_person23 says: Hey there Sisqo! What else do you do in your spare time except for singing and acting? Love yah, Tasha
Sisqo says: I'm always trying to figure out new ways to make money.
Digital Dish Diva says: Have you come up with any new ways lately?
Sisqo says: Well I have a female group called "Lover" and they're about to release their first CD on the "Rush Hour 2" soundtrack. I have a rappers in entourage, and of course my clothing line. I'm also thinking of opening a restaurant in Baltimore.
Digital Dish Diva says: What kind of place?

Digital Dish Diva says: Any powder blue tuxes?
Sisqo says: No. But I did have a pearl white one.
sassy says: Tell us about your first true love even if it was in grade school.
Sisqo says: My first love was in high school, 9th grade. She was studying to be a nurse. I've always been attracted to the smart ones. She was a grade higher than I was, and girls mature faster than boys, so when she broke my heart I was devastated. That was actually the first time I dyed my hair blonde.
Digital Dish Diva says: Speaking of romance. . .
DarkLove_00 says: What was the weirdest thing you ever did to win over a girl?
Sisqo says: I don't do weird.
TheMallards says: Do you ever have stage fright?
Sisqo says: Only when it's a lot of people onstage with me. I'm more concerned about them hitting every queue than myself.
SportyBlondeHottie274 says: What happened to the silver hair?
Sisqo says: I change my appearance with the coming of each new album. Following the example of Michael, Madonna, Janet.
BabyGirl_213 says: R-U a Playa' or Playa' Hata'?
Sisqo says: (laughs!) I'm a graduating player hater. I think everyone has a little hate in them.
Natoril03 says: What type of feedback have you gotten from the fans about the new CD?
Sisqo says: Well it's kind of hard to say because nobody ever really comes to you and says it sucks. So far everyone I've spoken to so far has been diggin' it.
FlyGirlJolie says: How old is your daughter and does she tour with you?
Sisqo says: My daughter is 6 and no she doesn't tour with me. I just saw her yesterday. She's just like her daddy.
Digital Dish Diva says: Does she sing?
Sisqo says: Uh huh. She has quite an amazing head to only be 6 years old.
Sisqo says: She actually won an award in school for being the best singer in class. I was like "Dang! I didn't know you could sing that good"! VersaceHottie says: Is the little girl in the Thong Song video really your daughter?
Sisqo says: Uh huh. That's the little dragon.
bootie says: Do you want your daughter to take after you and become a singer or an actress?
Sisqo says: My daughter's pretty intelligent and I'll support her in whatever she does. I think she'll be like Angelina Jolie when she grows up.
Truncks84 says: How was it working with DMX?
Sisqo says: It was cool but it wasn't like anything new. Nokio had introduced us the year prior. But he's real. The same dude he is in his music is the same dude he is in person.
TeenBoarder13 says: What's the last movie that you saw?
Sisqo says: My daughter made me go see "Dr. Doolittle 2."
Digital Dish Diva says: How was it?
Sisqo says: It's for the kids, but it's kind of cool because Raven Samone who plays Eddie Murphy's daughter had a poster of me up in her bedroom.
Digital Dish Diva says: Did you know that before you saw the film?
Sisqo says: No, but it was kind of cool.
Digital Dish Diva says: Speaking of films, what releases do you have coming up?
Sisqo says: I'm playing a comedic role in a new movie called "Winter Dance" scheduled to come out this winter staring opposite Cuba Gooding Jr. And I have a couple of action scripts on the desk right now.
Digital Dish Diva says: What is the film about?
Sisqo says: I don't know. I just showed up and did my part. It's a Disney film so it should be pretty entertaining.

KittyCat306 says: What's your favorite sport?
Sisqo says: Boxing.
Digital Dish Diva says: Watching or doing?
Sisqo says: Doing. My first lesson was with Cuba on the set of "Winter Dance."
Sisqo says: He's been a boxer in quite a few movies so his form is kind of ill! Speaking of boxing, the heavyweight champion is from Baltimore.
ShadyLady_Lp says: When is Woody coming back to the group Dru Hill?
Sisqo says: Something to ask Woody.
w P Ǩ says: What is it like traveling all over the world? Is it wild?
Sisqo says: It's quite tiresome. It's definitely an unforgettable experience.
Digital Dish Diva says: Did you do the cartoon graphics of you on your site?
Sisqo says: I graduated from school in Commercial Art. So I would probably be working for Disney. I graduated at the top of my class.
Digital Dish Diva says: Is that your animation on your website?
Sisqo says: No, I think it's cool, but I can draw better than that. My form is more closer to Anime. I had been drawing that particular art style since 1991, and now it's become more popular.
Digital Dish Diva says: Do you still draw now?
Sisqo says: I still draw, but not as fast as I used to. If I have to draw something to prove my ability, I can pull it off. QTBabesays: What was your best concert?
Sisqo says: All of them!
Sisqo says: Every time I meet the dragon on stage, it's like the first time.
sweetNsinglegurl says: Can you speak any other languages?
Sisqo says: I can say like 3 words in 8 different languages, thank you, hello, goodbye.
babyprincess says: If you could do a duet with anybody, who would it be?
Sisqo says: Probably Eminem. That would be hot.
sisqo_luvasays: What's the craziest thing a fan has done to get close to you?
Sisqo says: Hid in like the closet of my dressing room.
Digital Dish Diva says: That's kinda scary.
Sisqo says: No, she was fly! It was just a shock.

one_sad_chica says: If you had the chance to change one thing in your life what would it be? Sisqo says: I think I would have liked to have won that Grammy for best song of the year. Riley413 says: Sisqo, has your life changed since you've become famous? Sisqo says: I get less sleep.I can pretty much obtain any material thing I want. That's really cool. Digital Dish Diva says: What material thing are you hot for right now? Sisqo says: Most of the time when I spend money it's on like a video game or book. Digital Dish Diva says: What's the last book you read? Sisqo says: I'm actually in the middle of the book "The Art of War" right now. Sisqo says: It really expands your mind. It makes you think on a totally different level than you do on an everyday basis. Makes you look at things a little different. Miss_lady_Luv says: Is there any celebrity that you would love to meet that you haven't met yet? Sisqo says: Nope. Digital Dish Diva says: So you've met Angelina Jolie? (laughs) Sisqo says: Na, but she's got a husband. I don't want to meet her. Sisqo says: Now if she was single... I would definitely LOVE to meet her! sugababy_03 says: When you were growing up was there people that tried to stop you from becoming what you are now? Sisqo says: Yeah, of course, and like I said, people try and do that now. It never stops, you have to be strong. Trust in God, that's what I do. Sometimes easier said than done. Digital Dish Diva says: Sisqo, thanks for stopping by MSN Live once again. Always great having you here. Sisqo says: Whoever don't got my album, stop being cheap! I love you all! Thanks! It was a little long but it was interesting.
