I really hate bureaucracy and the idea that I'm not a free person.

If I get in a relationship, it's always for the long-term; if not, I don't see the point.

I always carry a good lipstick with me, like MAC in Ruby Woo. It has a matt finish, the essence of that vintage glamour look.

I'm really into food; it's one of my favourite things - everything from potato waffles to lobster.

I wish I was more stupid because I'm either completely ecstatic and joyous and absolutely high as a kite or I'm a bit morbid. There's never anything in between.

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

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.
