I don't want to be some skinny mini with my tits out. I really don't want to do it and I don't want people confusing what it is that I'm about.

I read a comment [about me] on YouTube that I thought would upset me — ‘Test pilot for pies’ — but I’ve always been a size 14-16 and been fine with it. I would only lose weight if it affected my health or sex life, which it doesn’t.

I have insecurities of course, but I don't hang out with anyone who points them out to me.

I'm like Johnny Cash. I only wear black.

I get so nervous on stage I can't help but talk. I try. I try telling my brain: stop sending words to the mouth. But I get nervous and turn into my grandma. Behind the eyes it's pure fear. I find it difficult to believe I'm going to be able to deliver.

I've always written down how I feel.

In my hometown memories are fresh.
