I was looking for something to make me happy, and once I realised what I actually had, then I found success.

I don't tend to lie. If I do, it's a little one. Like, 'I'm only around the corner...' when really I'm 10 minutes away.

I'm not afraid of a rant, am I? I've got to that point where I've just become a woman; I think I've just grown.

I don't really read books. Wish I did.

My advice is, if you are going to go on 'X Factor,' you have to know who you are as an artist.

Constantly having to think about money is not nice. People used to say, 'Being rich doesn't make you happy'. And I'd think, 'I've got no electricity, nothing - tell that to my empty fridge'.
