Dressing up is like therapy; I feel better in myself when I've made an effort.

I lend people money, but I'd never lend something that would jeopardise a friendship if I didn't get it back.

I don't connect much with the present. I have more of an affinity for what came in the past.

Anything that's on television as often as someone on 'The X Factor' is what's successful. That doesn't mean that I condone that or think that it's right. To be honest, I'd be the first to say I think it's a shame. But if that's the way it is then that's the way it is.

I love going to the cinema. Whenever I get time off, that's where I go.

I feel curious about every situation I'm in.

I don't normally have time to read, so when I go away I like to take a few books.
