Most women are dissatisfied with their appearance - it's the stuff that fuels the beauty and fashion industries.

There's a lot of women's organisations, but they're all working separately. If you get people together, as a collaborative voice, it's strong.

I enjoy multi-tasking, so I want to do a lot of different things. I want to keep all the plates spinning.

I've never been a social person. When I grew up, the other girls would all be combing their hair and exchanging lipstick, and I just couldn't do that group thing.

Over the years, I was never really driven to become a solo artist, but I was curious to find out who I was as an individual creative person. It's taken some time, but now I feel I've truly paid my dues. I guess I'm at a point now where I'm more comfortable in my own skin.

I'm appalled that the word 'feminism' has been denigrated to a place of almost ridicule and I very passionately believe the word needs to be revalued and reintroduced with power and understanding that this is a global picture. It isn't about us and them.

Dying is easy, it's living that scares me to death.
