I don’t write songs about a specific, elusive thing. I write about love, and everyone knows what it is like to have your heart broken.
My worst fear is my music won’t connect with the public.
Would I show my body off if I was thinner? Probably not, because my body is mine. I think I remind everyone of themselves. I’m not saying everyone is my size, but it’s relatable because I’m not perfect, and I think a lot of people are portrayed as perfect, unreachable and untouchable.
I’m really happy to be me, and I’d like to think people like me more because I’m happy with myself and not because I refuse to conform to anything.
I will not do festivals. The thought of an audience that big frightens the life out of me.
I’m very confident. Even when I read people saying horrible stuff about my weight.
I can’t believe I did a peace sign on TV – like Ringo Starr!
I want to go and see things as a fan again. I am a fan, but I can’t remember what it feels like to be a fan anymore. Because I’ve become an artist. I’ve become the artist.
I’ve always written down how I feel.
I wanted to be a singer forever. But it’s not really my cup of tea. Having the whole world know who you are.
If I were a writer and not a singer in 10 years, I don’t know how I’d feel about writing really personal songs and getting someone else to sing them.
I’ve never had a problem with the way I look. I’d rather go for lunch with my friends than go to a gym.
I’d love to be an artist always, but if no one wants me, I’d love to write songs for other people, be a manager, nurture new talent.
I love love songs. But I love pop music as well: Girls Aloud, Kylie, the Spice Girls, East 17, Mika.
A drunk tongue is an honest one in my opinion.
I don’t rely on my figure to sell records.
I find it quite difficult to think that there’s, you know, about 20 million people listening to my album that I wrote very selfishly to get over a breakup. I didn’t write it being that it’s going to be a hit.
I think it’s shameful when you sell out. It depends what kind of artist you wanna be, but I don’t want my name anywhere near another brand.
There will be no new music until it’s good enough and until I’m ready.
I can’t dance to save my life.
