Ever since I was little, my mum used to choose an outfit for me and lay it on the bed so I'd know what I was wearing the next day. I never went to a uniformed school, so I always had an outfit - and I never really grew out of that, I don't think.

Mum doesn't like it when I mention that Dad's a better cook than her. He was born in Spain and spent eight years in Portugal and is exceptional at lots of cuisines.

I stay true to my lyrics. If I go back and look at them in hindsight, the emotions I had when I wrote them have passed. It feels unjustified to change them.

My mum's always on at me to have children and blames 'that stupid stage thing you do' for me not already having a family.

I'd say that, first and foremost, I'm a performer; I started performing when I was four years old, and being on stage from a young age set me up.

Adele's like a beacon of honesty. Doesn't compromise, goes to America and she's still the same sweary cockney.

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