They never were planning to be here. All my family are going to London because they wanted to go to the big one. There was never any showdown - there wouldnt be.

I'm just experimenting with every different type of music you can imagine and seeing where my voice lies and what sounds best. I think when I do finally do the album it will be very eclectic - just loads of different stuff on it. That's what I am hoping.

I love singing - singing is what I'm famous for doing. Now it's turned into things I am famous for doing - like having rows with my mum or about my boyfriend, so it does get irritating.

I can't believe there's a website which counts down until I'm legal. It is quite sick and perverted when you think about it. These people must have a lot of time on their hands.

I can't stand Bob Dylan.

When I try to get work in the US all they say is that I need to lose weight - but I bet they never said that to Mae West.

I don't want to go too far away from what I'm doing now because that would alienate my audience.
