I've got wealth and fame but I haven't changed my roots.

Once journalists have been rifling through your dustbins, you do try and keep them at arms' length.

I have a stepladder. It's a very nice stepladder but it's sad that I never knew my real ladder.

I've got wealth and fame but I haven't changed my roots.

Coming from having absolutely nothing to having a few grand in the bank, it was a big culture leap. I think that's why I went off the rails a bit really, 'cause there was no training for it. They didn't do fame in schools.

British fans are exceptional, but the American fans are something else. Some of them fly 500 miles to stand in line for three hours, just to meet me, then when they do they collapse.

I'm busy and that's the way I like it - when I have too much downtime I get into trouble.
