I really love animals. My cat is my little soul mate. He's not just a cat, he's my friend.

It wasn't so much destroying my dancing, it was destroying me

There are things going on in galleries recently that have shocked me. What I'm going to say is really controversial, but what I find the most provocative is the commerciality of art in general. And the fact that a lot of people have forgotten what the meaning of art is and what the intention behind it is.

I've got over so much. Mum wouldn't want anything to come into my life that would make me fragile again

I want to spend my life with someone and do nice things and go on adventures, read books and have nice food and celebrate things. I don't want to spend the rest of my life in the bedroom like some people who just go to bed and never get out again.

I've been slagged off completely by the art world and I don't know whether fancy being slagged off by the literary world as well. It's just too much.

Art is like a lover whom you run away from but who comes back and picks you up.
