I think there's quite a lot of cowardice in music. I don't mind if it goes wrong, I just want to go for it.

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.

A good song is a good song whatever your age.

Everybody remembers Robbie Williams said I had a face like a satellite dish.

I've got quite a curvy shape so I try to wear stuff that's tailored.

Also, I think women really come into their own in their 30s.

I like the influence of the macabre, but I don't believe in ghosts.

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.
