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.

No one ever chats me up; I think they all think I'm taken. Either that or no one fancies me.

You cannot schedule death.

I try not to brand myself 'weird' any more because it sticks.

I think that there should be options available, quite early on, that if someone is recognised as a disruptive child, for them to be trained vocationally. Maybe if those kids were given the option to learn how to contribute to society on a practical level they wouldn't get into trouble.

I get to know my regular fans, and they inspire me.

I don't know anyone, from any class, who's had a perfectly easy life. I've met people born into wealthy families who feel like they didn't have much emotional support, and people who come from working-class families who had loads of love but no money.
