When you research prolific songwriters, it is usually later in their career they write songs that they distance themselves from, or it's about other people.

Anybody who says they don't want to be seen on a show which has millions of people watching it at one time when they're in the business of selling records is a bit silly.

I'm very affected by what I watch and read.

There's nothing better than achieving your goals, whatever they might be.

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

I'd rather be on my own than be with a violent man.

I mean, my music career and my acting career - if I want to do them to the extent that I eventually do want to get to, it's going to be a bit of a balancing act. But I'm hoping they'll just go hand in hand.
