I find singing as somebody else very liberating, it just frees me up.

Mimicking people was something I did already.

I found that I could make people laugh doing people like Shirley Bassey. Fortunately it worked.

Usually, certainly British singers, adopt an American accent when they sing and I think that usually people are thinking of somebody else, but I just think of very specific people.

My own singing voice is not very good and I don't think that anybody really sings in their own voice.

I just find it thrilling, especially when I totally lock in to the person that I am doing and I'm really flying... I suppose I am hiding myself when I sing as these other people.

My earliest acting memory is making up a play for my mom and dad called The Lonesome Baby. I have no idea what The Lonesome Baby was about. I just remember the title. But I'm sure it was an epic.
