“Weight doesn’t matter as long as you’re happy with yourself.”

I would really love to do a musical, I don’t know in what capacity but something funny.

I am thinking about those things now. More so than all my friends – they’re a lot older than me, but they’re not even thinking about babies.

In the next few years I’d love to play a female version of Doctor Who. I know exactly how I would play her – she would be crafty in a clever kind of way.

I’m happy in the UK. I absolutely love it and I’ve finally got a great group of friends. I’ve got a lovely little flat and my work’s here.

The whole size zero debate is disgusting. My sister, who’s 13, looks amazing – but she’s already worried about her figure.

I think Beyonce Knowles got a couple of million for a private show but I would be happy to turn it down.

Yeah, I fancy women big time… I check them out more than I check men out. Maybe I would want to sleep with a woman… Not Beyonce, although I like the look of her, I don’t think she’s that dirty.

I suppose that’s a lot to do with our current climate and financial messes. I certainly see that people seem to have to work harder with a lot less time.

They’re great films but I much prefer the smaller independent films, which are more thought provoking and experimental.

I was freakishly ambitious. I didn’t want to be a child. I wanted my own flat, to work and be a grown up.

I was very similar at 19. I wanted something to happen in life, I wanted a bit more. I wanted to find someone who could challenge my ideas. So I definitely tapped into that.

A musical film is my idea of heaven. You can pre-record, you don’t have to sing live. Singing live was the bit I hated the most. I never felt like a confident singer.

The more things you own, the more people you need to employ.

Look at the orators in our republics; as long as they are poor, both state and people can only praise their uprightness; but once they are fattened on the public funds, they conceive a hatred for justice, plan intrigues against the people and attack the democracy.

If I stay in one mindset or place for too long, I get crazy.

Maybe there is no tomorrow for us. Thats why I’m hoping today to be a very long day.

There’s plenty for me to do. There are more albums. I’ll record as long as I can and as long as my voice works as well as it does now and for as long as people want to hear me.

I no longer wonder what you are doing now I just know you exist and I hope you haven’t unlearnt the way we used to vibrate towards each other without words.

The sun in you will rise when you’ll start longing for the light.

I would rather live a short life of glory than a long one of obscurity.

Everything that is going to last a long time will also take a lot of time to come true.
