When I do my shows, it's really cross-generational. Sometimes there's three generations there.

It's amazing living alone. I'm very lucky. It's like a refuge.

I enjoy being a girl.

I am inspired by show girls and Vegas. I was a cabaret performer, so that's where all that influence comes from.

If I go out with no make-up and a tracksuit on, nobody comes up to me. And if they do, I won't do a photo because I wouldn't want any photographic evidence.

My denim jacket had 'I love GNR' and 'I love AC/DC' written all over it, but I always came back to swing.

Once you accept that we're all imperfect it's the most liberating thing in the world. Then you can go around making mistakes and saying the wrong thing and tripping over on the street and all that and not feel worried.
