My emotions overload because there is no hand to hold, there’s no shoulder here to lean on; I’m walking all on my own.

I love getting my feet massaged.

The female body is something that's so beautiful. I wish women would be proud of their bodies and not diss other women for being proud of theirs.

When you're seventeen years old, green and inexperienced, you're grateful for any guidance and direction you can get.

You used to have to sing and convey emotion, and now, well, technically you can do anything with technology. It sucks for music today, but that's why that old music feels so good to me.

Independence was a big, big thing for me. I saw my voice as a way out - when my parents fought, I'd run up to my room, put on The Sound of Music, open the window and sing out. My voice was my escape.

Call me a slag. If it means being a strong woman, I'll gladly be that.
