The thought of going on tour with people like Toyah Wilcox is just appalling. I'm certainly not tempted.

Do not dehumanize others.

Maybe I've got to admit that what I did here was enough. I can make some more films. Maybe I'll direct a film. Maybe I'll have my musical put on stage. But nothing, really, to be absolutely honest, competes with making a very successful pop band for 10 years of my life.

I am a metrosexual and into male grooming - I moisturise, I exfoliate.

I've been through Hell with some of the members of my old band, and Hell is highly stressful.

I detest that saying Everything happens for a reason; its nonsense.

Being onstage is a way of harnessing your vulnerability and using the adrenaline to be creative. It's a very vulnerable place to be - technically, emotionally, and physically - but I love it.
