I don't know why people think I'm polished - I often leave the house with buttons missing and ladders in my tights.

I try not to wear anything I have to fidget with - there's nothing worse than wearing something and pulling down the hem and re-adjusting the top. My pet hate is when girls wear those strapless dresses and spend the whole night yanking them up.

Turning the thermostat down is something that I do pretty reluctantly. I like to be able to walk around in whatever I fancy at home.

I've got a thing for footwear; I have about 200 pairs of shoes from all over the world.

I love getting dressed up. Being a pop star is the most brilliant job for that. A lot of girls love shopping, but they might see the most amazing outfit and think, 'When am I going to wear that?', so it's my duty to exploit the fact I do have events I can wear these things to.

It's funny how intimate it feels to get a text.

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.
