There are a lot of people out there who lie about their age and I think it does us all a disservice. It can't all be over when you hit 30. That would be rubbish.

More quotes by Sophie Ellis Bextor
When it comes to my family I never quite know how protective I have to be, or what I should or shouldn't say.
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 can definitely tell when mum has got money because then she likes to go shopping to spend it, whereas dad is steadier and avoids splurges. I like to think I've inherited both sides.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
I like the influence of the macabre, but I don't believe in ghosts.

Sophie Ellis Bextor
I don't think anyone doubts my motives, really. I do what I do and it's not very complicated. Of course, you might hate the music that I make, but I don't think people feel threatened by me just getting on with what I'm up to.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
I love getting dressed up. Being a pop star is the most brilliant job for that. A lot of girls love shopping, but they might see the most amazing outfit and think, 'When am I going to wear that?', so it's my duty to exploit the fact I do have events I can wear these things to.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
Everybody remembers Robbie Williams said I had a face like a satellite dish.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
I'd never really thought about it before, but now you ask I can see that how my parents handled money definitely affected my relationship with it.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
I try not to wear anything I have to fidget with - there's nothing worse than wearing something and pulling down the hem and re-adjusting the top. My pet hate is when girls wear those strapless dresses and spend the whole night yanking them up.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
A lot of what inspired many musicians is celebrating differences, and people relate to that - more people feel like the unpopular, freaky one than the one in the in-crowd.
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
In real life, I'm not super-posh but if that's the stereotype, I really don't care. It could be worse.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
Having a successful first album is one thing, but a successful third is another.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
I tasted huge success with my first album, and when it's happening it feels like a roller coaster you can't get off. You should be very careful about wishing for success on that scale.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
I'm the messiest person I know.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
Dance music is great, but it's not a time to be reflective or particularly wistful.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
I don't think that old-fashioned idea of record companies exists any more.
Sophie Ellis Bextor
That's part of the reason I called the album 'Shoot From The Hip.' I did feel it was time to open up more.
