I met Courtney Love and she said she'd like to sleep with me, but she couldn't cos of my "pop-star thing"... so I said to her I couldn't sleep with her either - cos of her 'ugly thing'.

It's success, not fame, that is quite addictive. I'm addicted to a lot of things and, as it happens, success is one of them.

I'm a bit hesitant to do anything because I'm actually kind of lazy and I'd like an easier life from now on. The world's a massive place with lots of early mornings and late starts when you're working.

I've nothing against anyone following their dreams - but not if they're crap.

There aren't many great adverts for marriage or parenthood. It always looks so stressful, and that's what I've been scared of. What you don't realise is how much you're going to get back.

I like listening to good music - and I can't stop playing my album.

I am the only man who can say he's been in Take That and at least two members of the Spice Girls.
