A good song is a good song whatever your age.

The fact that my mother was on television every week while I was young was occasionally awkward, and often frustrating.

I'm big in Russia, but no one's quite sure why.

I don't want to sound like an old grandmother but actually it's quite nice when you get up early and then, by the time it gets to 10am, you're quite perky and already quite switched on.

When I first started out, I got criticism for the way I looked. I think, now, it's a good thing because, why would you want to look like everyone else?

I must confess I knew very little about the trance scene, I'm more house and commercial dance but it was really interesting and different.

I'm really interested in fashion but at the same time I find it quite competitive. Second-hand stuff leaves you more open to whatever your own personal style is rather than feeling dictated to by shops.
