I love reggae music; reggae music's like my go-to.

I think I was a mermaid and I used to swim the shores or Hawaii and used to pop up and see coconuts and pineapples everywhere.

Create a vision that makes you wanna jump out of bed in the morning.

Reggae music really chills me out in my dressing-room before I head on stage.

The simple questions are always the hardest ones.

When I do my vocal warm-ups everyone calls me the dolphin because I do stupid siren noises.

I always feel like when I've listened to a great song I know it, 'cuz it's the only time I'll ever get goosebumps or something like that.

I think we've all got a mirror man in our life - male, female, it's someone who love themselves before they can love anyone else.

By the time I was ten or eleven, I had a song-book and I was writing everything down. It used to just be my hobby but now it's like my diary, it's where I can go in my own little bubble.

I started playing the piano from the age of three and I started teaching myself; we always had a piano round the house.

My parents brought me up on all different styles of music, like my Mum would listen to Motown R&B and my Dad was quite 80's driven, so I was always surrounded by music growing up.

The best way to Prove your critics wrong is to Improve yourself

You are the illusion, be anything you want to be!

God grant us patience!

I would love to be on Broadway!

When you make a movie with Alejandro Amenábar, he very quickly... it was very clear you're kind of operating in his dream universe.

For me especially, I always need that literature medium.

You can be a good mom and still work out, get your rest, have a career - or not. My mother encouraged me to find that balance.

If I hadn't met you, I'd certainly have fallen in love with him.

Contemporary criticism only represents the amount of ignorance genius has to contend with. . . . Time will reverse the judgement of the vulgar.

It's better to die than to never really have lived.
