There's one argument that says we shouldn't be putting these kids on under the age of 16. I think you've got to take it case by case.

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.

You didn't beat the compotition you crushed the compotition!

My life honestly isn't as weird as people think it is. I work longer hours, maybe I have a bit more money, but fundamentally, I'm not really that different.

We felt the time was right to open up the boundaries, and say to all of America, regardless of your age, whether you're 2, whether you're 100, regardless of what you believe your talent is - juggling, magic, singing - this is the show you can enter. It's as simple as that.

I didn't have any qualifications when I left school - I had three O-levels.

There's no need for me to get married. I live with someone; we're happy; end of story.
