Sophie Ellis Bextor
Now when I say Sophie Ellis-Bextor I feel that's not really me because that's become this entity from doing the gigs and the shows and the make-up contracts and whatever else.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
But I quite like that the public has a very short attention span. If I haven't been on telly for a little bit, I can sense it. People don't take as much notice of you, it's really quite palpable.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
I started my music career at 18 and for a long while I let other people handle my affairs.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
