When I was very young I wanted to be an opera singer, a ballet dancer... The people I loved were a little different.

If I want to dress myself a certain way, I don't want to have to rely on someone else to do it for me.

We live in a very strange world where everything is so accessible; if you like one song someone did, you can see what they ate for breakfast or what kind of sunglasses they wore.

I'm a country girl, raised in Gloucestershire, England. But my family encouraged me to travel, and I wanted to experience the world. Maybe that's not traditional, but my values have stayed strong. Perhaps that's where wanting to have children comes into it: I'll always be making work; I guess when - and if - I have children, I'll have them with me.

I'm a little bit older, I've traveled the world, spent lots of time in New York and Paris and lots of inspiring places, and I still feel alien.

I think 'fan' implies somebody who's submissive, sycophantic, in awe of everything you're doing.
