The fact that my mother was on television every week while I was young was occasionally awkward, and often frustrating.

Some people are really good at packaging themselves, but that's not really me.

Yeah, I'm not really a morning person.

I'm a sucker for sad disco pop.

A lot of what inspired many musicians is celebrating differences, and people relate to that - more people feel like the unpopular, freaky one than the one in the in-crowd.

I like the influence of the macabre, but I don't believe in ghosts.

Some people can get away with being very sexy to men and not looking like a complete cow, but I didn't think I was in a position where people knew me well enough

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.

Trust your instincts: they tend to see you right. By listening to them, at least you can sleep at night.

Not all my shoes are designer. In terms of clothes, everything is on the same level for me. If I like it, it doesn't matter if it cost £200 or £2. I'm attracted to things rather than labels.

When I first started out, I got criticism for the way I looked. I think, now, it's a good thing because, why would you want to look like everyone else?

People with victim mentality spend their energy not on achieving their target but on meaningless complaints

Everything is talking to you. If you have a listening heart, you will be able to hear it.

You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.

My goal in life is to be content. By that I don't mean "fine" or "basically satisfied." I don't mean settling. I mean, for last of better terms, feeling like I'm in the right life.

My biggest regret is putting my body through fad diets - Atkins, cleanses, the hCG diet.

In the middle of difficulties lie opportunities.

My mother saved hundreds of animals in her life. Wherever she encountered and injured or needy or abandoned animal, she brought it home.

I actually don't think that I'm gonna sell a lot of records.

Oftentimes an originator of new language forms is called 'pretentious' by jealous talents. But it ain’t whatcha write, it’s the way atcha write it.

Life is like a cup of tea, the sugar is all at the bottom!
