More quotes by Sophie Ellis Bextor
My parents separated when I was four. It wasn't the smoothest of divorces, but then as my mother always says, you can't have a passionate marriage without a passionate divorce.

I'm the messiest person I know.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
Some people are really good at packaging themselves, but that's not really me.

Sophie Ellis Bextor
Everybody remembers Robbie Williams said I had a face like a satellite dish.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
My parents are good role models because they've worked hard and gave me a happy childhood.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
I've been DJing a little bit, so you get used to the fact that music sounds brilliant when it's loud.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
Writing songs about fancying people in dance clubs is all very well but it's not the be-all and end-all. There are other topics.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
Yes, being educated is definitely an advantage. But having said that, I've met so many people in life who haven't done very well at school but who are still really bright.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
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.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
I'm happy that I have a look, but I don't over-analyse whether or not it's beautiful or ugly.
