I love a beautiful gown on stage, and luckily I've been fortunate to wear some amazing dresses.

Fear and pain and suffering is not OK for any being to feel intentionally at the hands of us.

I'd always been quite quiet growing up, and singing was a way of having a voice.

I've had tonsilitis and I'm not sure if I can sing on Saturday [whilst out on the town in the West End]

My parents have always done what they've loved, and they've had many different careers.

My dad is such a good man. You know how when you are a child you think your dad is invincible? Well, I still think that - he is so wise and everything I do I ask my dad's advice about first.

I usually dream of melodies. When I wake up I have them in my head. I usually come up with things in the middle of the night because that's when my mind is the quietest. I always have my tape recorder, pen and pad by my bed just in case.
