I don't think writing or co-writing my songs makes me a better singer, but I haven't really got an excuse not to do it as I've got too many opinions!

I'd never really thought about it before, but now you ask I can see that how my parents handled money definitely affected my relationship with it.

I'm always sticking up for other people.

I've got quite a curvy shape so I try to wear stuff that's tailored.

I used to be hung up on my figure, but it's a waste of time. I don't believe in diets. Have four pints one night, be healthy the next.

Yes, being educated is definitely an advantage. But having said that, I've met so many people in life who haven't done very well at school but who are still really bright.

I started my music career at 18 and for a long while I let other people handle my affairs.
