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

I had my autograph down by the age of 13. I used to sign it everywhere.

I'm all for consumer rights. I get very aggravated if I don't get a good service.

You should make an effort on stage because it's a performance. The stage should be glittery and camp, but I don't go down the shops in full stage gear.

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.

I think there's quite a lot of cowardice in music. I don't mind if it goes wrong, I just want to go for it.

My parents separated when I was four. It wasn't the smoothest of divorces, but then as my mother always says, you can't have a passionate marriage without a passionate divorce.
