I can't believe that I've written my best work yet. If I believed that, then I wouldn't bother releasing music anymore.

When Andrew [Ridgeley] first met my family, he heard my mom calling me "Yorgos." He just abbreviated it to Yog, and unfortunately it stuck. I hated it is a teenager. It was not the most glamorous-sounding name in the world.

I'd never touch anything. I think it's foolhardy to play around with the face that you've been given. To have a little snip or a tuck, I think, is really quite obscene.

I don't know what age the people who review my concerts reached puberty, I don't know if people in America reach puberty a lot later than they do in England or something like that, but the majority of those people are in their late teens and early twenties.

The main downside was that it [fame] happened so quickly and I didn't have time to establish what kind of person I wanted to be.

I truly believed that tonight would never happen, that I would never sing these songs to you again. But then I'm a fool, which you've probably worked out by now.

I have two sisters. My father is Greek and comes from a family of seven. My mother is English and comes from a family of five.
