I have to not take myself too seriously and I have to realise that if it is meant to be, it will be.

I'm a sucker for, like, an endearing man who's like standing in his authentic self.

I know my parents are really proud of me, and they think I've become successful, so that's nice, but there's still so much I want to achieve in my life.

I think, for me anyway, music and film is where you can really transport yourself to another universe.

When I did my first film I kind of fell into it. I got cast in this movie called 2:37... the director, Murali K Thalluri, basically saw me and said: "I'm going to put you in this movie." And that week I felt like a void had been filled. I was so in my element. I was thrown in at the deep end.

I came from rather humble beginnings.

Life is way too short to be focused on scales, weight and cellulite. If you can look in the mirror and know that you're a beautiful, loving, friendly person who's good to people, that'll ultimately make you shine on the outside.
