I've only ever wanted to be a singer; I never wanted to be famous.

I go home and don't get treated any differently. People have known me all my life and are interested and very supportive but because they have known me forever I don't get any diva treatment. My mum still tells me off if I haven't loaded the dishwasher for her.

My idol was Marilyn Monroe, who was a size 16, I think, and curvy in all the right places. I will never be stick thin. I remember a shoot where I had to get into these tiny hot pants, and I thought, 'God, I wish I hadn't eaten.'

Confidence is one of the sexiest things.

If my mum thinks I'm acting like a diva she'll soon tell me off... She'll cut me down to size!
