In TV, film, and music there's a lot of snobbery, and I don't like it. I've never been a cultural snob.

The feelings that we equate with love-feeling sick, feeling insecure, not eating-that's just lust getting in the way. It's your ego saying, 'I want to get laid' and 'I hope she likes me more than I like her.' Love is something that should be there in 20 years' time.

My attitude is, if someone's going to criticize me, tell me to my face.

I'm a great believer in getting checked out because if you know you're OK, you actually feel better; your mind plays a big part of it.

Talking to celebrities is too much effort. They all think the same.

I was bought an electric guitar when I was 12, but my guitar teacher beat me up. I didn't like guitar lessons... My teacher was obviously bored giving me lessons, and one day I offered him a liquorice toffee, but he didn't answer. So I threw it at him, it hit him in the face, and he sort of beat me up.

I never knew how much love and pride I would feel.
