A lot of my childhood memories involve walking home in floods of tears. At that age, feeling unpopular is difficult to handle.

Having a bad haircut can be quite traumatic!

I think having children is the most amazing thing.

I think it's certainly natural to try new things as you grow up and get older!

I'd rather stay out of the limelight until I've done something I feel proud of.

In S Club I played a role in a band, but now I can go off and be me - My horizon's wide open now. It's scary and it's daunting, but it's an absolute thrill. I feel brand new!

Be true to yourself and go with your instincts - don't be somebody you're not just to fit in.

I know it sounds a bit corny, but I do think that beauty and sexiness come from within.

I would love to work with someone like Kevin Spacey as he could pass on what I need to learn.

There are so many great artists and most of them are women, but that's good - the more the merrier!

I am really passionate about my career and my music and I am so lucky to be able to do what I do for a job, so for all the early morning starts and long days, I could never trade it all in.

Don't ever get angry at a man for stating the truth.

I would rather have it said, 'He lived usefully,' than, 'He died rich.'

Don't worry about a thing, every little thing is gonna be alright

I'm so excited for my son. On Christmas morning I want to see his face, to be there when he opens the gifts. I want the see what my assistants got him for Christmas.

Love makes a good eye squint.

Freshness is essential. That makes all the difference.

Man is the only one that knows nothing, that can learn nothing without being taught. He can neither speak nor walk nor eat, and in short he can do nothing at the prompting of nature only, but weep.

I find animated movies very touching. They reach an audience that's hard to get with a live-action film.

No one can help another very much in these crises of life; but love and sympathy count for something.

I don't use the computer. I do sketches, very quickly, often more than 100 on the same formal research.
