I'd love to have a fashion range; I've been dressed by the amazing Vivienne Westwood, and fashion is something I'm a huge fan of.

I want young people to know that they can belong - whatever your culture, your religion, your sexuality - that you can live life how you want to live it and feel comfortable how you are.

I like stripper shoes. I like being tall because I'm claustrophobic.

If you don't believe in yourself nobody else will believe in you.

I love getting dressed up, but I want to be remembered for my singing.

I had knockback after knockback before I got anywhere. After I got my first record deal I thought that was it, then Gut Records went into liquidation. I was 20. I had no idea what that meant. I had a few days to get myself out of that contract or my work would be owned by someone else.

But I love singing live. Nothing beats the feeling of going out on stage and going, 'I can really sing.'
