I always wanted to be an artist; being a songwriter for myself was always a must but being a songwriter for others has been a bonus.

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

I was obsessed with the Spice Girls! I always wanted to be Sporty. Or Posh, but I wasn't pretty enough.

We're flying free like birds in the sky, because we're ALIVE.

I'm not afraid to have no make-up on and no hair. I just want to be stripped back.
