I wasn't into anything at school. I used to get really embarrassed. I used to get asked to do performing things, and I'd go to all the rehearsals, and then I'd pretend to be ill on the day I had to actually perform. I was very unhappy at school.

I like to be able to get up and go and buy a pint of milk without bumping into 20 people I know.

I think the whole, like, cultural diversity and the arty side of London is really, really great. And how it's so historic as well.

When a music teacher that I had at school was taken ill and we had a variety show and I had to fill in - that's when I realized I had a voice.

We're in the age of the selfie. It's just encouraging vanity. It's not even representative of anything except how you want people to perceive you. Think of when people are partying and having fun. They're like, "Hey, look at us!" You're obviously not having that much fun because otherwise you wouldn't be stopping to document it. It's stupid.

Sometimes I wish I was just a girl in an indie band. I could dance around on stage and it wouldn't be so much about me.
