My idol was Marilyn Monroe, who was a size 16, I think, and curvy in all the right places. I will never be stick thin. I remember a shoot where I had to get into these tiny hot pants, and I thought, 'God, I wish I hadn't eaten.'

More quotes by Katherine Jenkins
I'd love to play Carmen - it's the perfect mezzo role.
Katherine Jenkins
I go home and don't get treated any differently. People have known me all my life and are interested and very supportive but because they have known me forever I don't get any diva treatment. My mum still tells me off if I haven't loaded the dishwasher for her.
Katherine Jenkins
Marilyn Monroe was supposedly a size 16, which is probably why I love her style it suits me better.
Katherine Jenkins
I do not understand where the idea came from that opera is only for privileged people, I am as happy singing before 70,000 people at the Millennium Stadium, as I am in front of a few hundred in a small concert hall.
Katherine Jenkins
I love coming back to Neath - this is home and always will be.
Katherine Jenkins
Beatbullying's 'The Big March 2012' is such a brilliant campaign and I am very proud to be a part of it. I have been a victim of cyber bullying myself and I know firsthand just how hurtful it can be. People think that they can hide behind computers and send nasty and hurtful comments to people, and this is wrong.
Katherine Jenkins
Confidence is one of the sexiest things.
Katherine Jenkins
Everything in my career is my decision - every picture, every outfit. You get one chance at this, and I never saw myself as being a puppet.
Katherine Jenkins
I did once shatter a chandelier. I was singing with my college choir in Wales. I was the soloist and I hit the high note and there was this massive bang and all this glass came down from the ceiling. I'd like that to be my party trick if I can perfect it.
Katherine Jenkins
In Heaven, I believe my dad is somewhere doing something nice. I feel I've been too lucky to travel this far without somebody guiding me.
Katherine Jenkins
At the weekend, one of the paparazzi left their lunch box filled with half-eaten pasta salad on my doorstep: it was like a little warning, you know? 'We have been here.'
Katherine Jenkins
People see you sing in a certain way, in a long dress, and you are put on a pedestal like you have never made a mistake in your life.
Katherine Jenkins
I always choose songs that I have an emotional connection to, and I often feel myself getting very emotional when I sing.
Katherine Jenkins
If you love somebody, you love them. My parents had a 25-year age gap between them and my mum was the breadwinner, my dad the house husband. I'm a strong believer that a good relationship can work, whatever the situation.
Katherine Jenkins
My mother and father were perfect role models. They were together for 25 years and very much in love. But I've got too much to do now. I'm only 27.
Katherine Jenkins
I was such a geek in school.
Katherine Jenkins
I've been lucky that I've performed with a lot of the classical people I've wanted to work with so I'd like to do something that people didn't see coming. Like Madonna, or being Welsh - the Tom Jones thing. Or somebody suggested N-Dubz - that would be brilliant!
Katherine Jenkins
Yes. I do about 70 shows a year, in the past year I've been to Italy, Australia, Japan, China, just about everywhere. I do it because I love singing. The money is a bonus.
Katherine Jenkins
I really see myself as a homegirl. Wales is my first home. London is my second home - I've been there 14 years now.
Katherine Jenkins
I'm a Cancerian, the typical crab with the tough outer shell and the soft bit in the middle. I don't think I'll ever come to terms with people being unnecessarily nasty, but I can take it if someone doesn't like my music - I'm not everyone's cup of tea.
