I made my new album 'Colour Me Free!' in a week with my own money.
It's sad that people listen to music and decide how the singer should look.
I think that people are having to do like really crazy things to shock people now, to get people's attention and it kind of, it's this way in lots of different aspects of life. You know, people fight for attention. It's competitive. So they need to be the one that stands out.
The British press has been unfair to me and the public has followed.
If I could be a doctor and save lives I would, but I can't so I sing songs.
It's nice to know that you're worth something and music really does put that kind of light back into you. Well, it does for me anyway. I've been through some very interesting times in my life and there is certain songs that I go to and I'm like, ok, it's not that bad.
