When I hit a period of not being able to write music, I get up and walk away. It's pretty mean but it's true.

I like to be able to get up and go and buy a pint of milk without bumping into 20 people I know.

I think as long as you're not being malicious and you're not hurting people then you should not be ashamed of what you do.

I refuse to put make-up on just because the paparazzi are on my doorstep. I find it morally wrong.

There's a certain amount of what I wear that I wear for irony.

I'm just not a private person. It's not like I do things because I want things to be public; it's just that's my way of expressing myself, and I happen to be very famous.

I've always listened to music, since I was really, really young.
