Working with other artists and sharing your passions is great.

I'm not a loud, extravagant person; I'm never going to be that and, to be honest, I don't want to be like that.

People have been kind enough to compare me to Celine Dion, Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston. I think it's amazing that they even put my name in the same sentence.

Animal testing is needless, especially in cosmetics.

I love music but, of course, I'd choose love over that.

I get such lovely gifts from fans... amazing pictures, handmade jewellery. I'm very lucky!

I can't remember who told me but I was advised early on not to Google myself or read things about myself... I don't read a lot but get the gist of what's been said from friends and family. It's good to avoid it if you want to be normal person.
