Australia is so entrenched in rock'n'roll and bands, and that's just the way Australia is.

I get really frustrated with people who turn their noses up at talent shows like 'The Voice' and 'X-Factor.'

I don't live my life seeking validation from people on social media.

I love kids, and I'm great with them, but I also love being able to give them back.

I'm not ashamed of showing my curves to the world. Bodies are beautiful when they're full and healthy and fit. I've always had curves and I'll always be proud of them.

I feel liberated, empowered, inspired and motivated. Fear holds you back from achieving what you want in life.

You never see Beyonce stumbling out of a club drunk and on drugs without underwear on - nor do you see Justin Timberlake pashing 5 chicks in a club. You never hear them slagging anyone in the media...They are composed and somewhat mysterious and that fascinates me!

You can, of course, be a sexy, strong female and be a good role model.

I see myself as a bit of a traveller. I am a workaholic.

I've been all different shapes and sizes in my lifetime. I started wearing shapewear as a teenager after I did 'Australian Idol.' I had a little tummy, and I was always really quite conscious of that.

Who doesn't know the easy, breezy, beautiful Covergirl line? I'm so excited to be the face of the brand in Australia and help all girls find and rock their inner Covergirl!

As a little kid, I used to lock myself in my room and put on my Whitney Houston CD's and pretend to be her and try and hit every single note that she hit. I used to dream that one day that would be me.
