Americans are always mortified when I tell them this, but in England, it's a tradition to put your plaques and photographs and awards and gold records and stuff in your bathroom. I don't know why.

I doubt I'll be singing forever, because at some point people aren't going to want to hear my music, and I hope that I'll still get the opportunity to write songs.

I don't make music for eyes. I make music for ears.

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.

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavement, even if it leads nowhere?

When I want to party, I play Beyoncé's "Crazy in Love." That's always been the song that my friends and I get ready to; or before I go on a first date, I play it to feel sexy.

I am quite loud and bolshie. I'm a big personality. I walk into a room, big and tall and loud.
