It's about labeling. For me feminism is bra-burning lesbianism. It's very unglamorous. I'd like to see it rebranded. We need to see a celebration of our femininity and softness.

For me reading was always the great escape without getting your fingers burnt.

I am absolutely blessed and I'm very grateful for where I am today.

The truth sets you free. It's a very liberating thing, when you say this is who I am warts and all and then you can just get on with life. It's amazing.

I was so afraid of upsetting people, and not being liked for saying something that was not to everyone's taste.

I have been wearing black, which was a reaction to the Ginger thing. But now I have hopes and I can be anything. Tomorrow I might be naked with a feather boa, who knows?

It's important to learn to laugh at ourselves. Don't take life too seriously.
