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

I think I'd be a million times more successful and more iconic if I was a singer in the 40s. I'd be allowed a level of mystery and I think I'd suit that decade.

I like not to feel that all my eggs are in one basket, or I get nervous.

I'm the type of person who, if somebody offers me a free meal, I get excited because you never know where your next free meal is going to come from.

I dread the idea of a paparazzi snapping me while I'm out running.

I'm under no illusion that there are things about me that I'd like to change. I just accept who I am, and I'm proud of it.

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