A lot of men do have a fear of my ultra-femininity. Sometimes people say I look like a drag queen, that I look scary, but I think that's a fear of my confidence. Most women in contemporary culture pare down their femininity, so there's a slight androgyny about them, and I think men have got used to seeing that.

I'm a serial monogamist.

I just have an inability to lie.

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

I believe in life you need to always ask for everything politely and nicely, and then if they say no you do what you wanted to do anyway

I want my shows to be eerie and mysterious.

You know, my mum's always encouraged me and never made my gender an issue, I guess. She brought me up to believe in equality, as opposed to feminism or sexism - so it just meant that my gender was not relevant to what I was capable of achieving.
