“I'm ugly.”
“If I died tomorrow, I would be a happy girl.”
“I don't even have a TV.”
“I like pin-up girls. I'm more of a boy than a girl. I'm not a lesbian, though - not before a sambuca anyway.”
“To be honest, I think kids have got a lot more going on than adults. They've got their heads screwed on a lot better.”
“I'm not a natural born performer.”
“I'm lucky because I do get to fly first-class now.”
“I always wrote poetry and stuff like that, so putting songs together wasn't that spectacular.”
“I've always been a little homemaker.”
“My parents pretty much realized that I would do whatever I wanted, and that was it, really.”
“The jazz I love is sweet and pure with raw elements, which is exactly what the good hip-hop is doing now.”
“There is no point in saying anything but the truth because, at the end of the day, you don't have to answer to anyone but yourself.”
“I read a lot when I'm travelling and always have a couple of books on the go.”
“I love food.”
“All the songs I write are about human dynamics, whether it's with girlfriends, boyfriends, or family.”
“Now I think that going to the gym is the best drug. I go four times a week and it gives me the buzz I need.”
“I don't listen to a lot of new stuff. I just like the old stuff. It's all quite dramatic and atmospheric. You'd have an entire story in song. I never listen to, like, white music - I couldn't sing you a Zeppelin or Floyd song.”
“I don't regret anything.”
“I listen to music that is of our time and I just get angry.”
“I'm very loyal.”
