I make music for ears, not eyes
I was adopting an Ethiopian child, that's not true. My house was haunted, that wasn't true. God, there's been so many rumours.
I love love songs. But I love pop music as well: Girls Aloud, Kylie, the Spice Girls, East 17, Mika.
There is nothing that would upset me more than my dad being bribed by the press. It's like, 'Just let them run it, then. Don't you give them ammunition.'
I'm scared of audiences. One show in Amsterdam I was so nervous, I escaped out the fire exit. I've thrown up a couple of times. Once in Brussels, I projectile vomited on someone. I just gotta bear it. But I don't like touring. I have anxiety attacks a lot.
I've got some news... I'm delighted to announce that Simon and I are expecting our first child together. I wanted you to hear the news direct from me, obviously we're over the moon.
I love a card. You know, cards? At birthdays? I collect them.
The focus on my appearance has really surprised me. I've always been a size 14 to 16, I don't care about clothes, I'd rather spend my money on cigarettes and booze.
I can't write another breakup record. That would be a real cliche.
I am never writing a breakup record again, by the way. I'm done with being a bitter witch.
I find it quite difficult to think that there's, you know, about 20 million people listening to my album that I wrote very selfishly to get over a breakup. I didn't write it being that it's going to be a hit.
It's never been an issue for me - I don't want to go on a diet, I don't want to eat a Caesar salad with no dressing, why would I do that? I ain't got time for this, just be happy and don't be stupid. If I've got a boyfriend and he loves my body then I'm not worried.
Sometimes my songs wander off a bit and are not always coherent.
Crying is really bad for your vocal cords.
You can't complain about your dressing room or you'll look like Celine Dion.
I don't write songs about a specific, elusive thing.
I don't write songs about a specific, elusive thing. I write about love, and everyone knows what it is like to have your heart broken.
I will not do festivals. The thought of an audience that big frightens the life out of me.
Even if I did have, you know, a 'Sports Illustrated' body, I'd still wear elegant clothes.
I'm like Johnny Cash. I only wear black.
