“I love fashion – I really feel it’s where I belong.”

I was never going to give Mariah Carey any competition.

I don’t want to be seen smiling, having fun, or eating.

I was very obsessed. I mean, I could tell you the fat content and the calorie content in absolutely anything.

I have a lot on my plate. I’m not going to lie about it, I’m tired. I’m really tired but I’m also very happy with my life.

There need to be more women supporting women. Not just in fashion, in general.

If you have a surreal life like I do, you’ve got to have fun along the way.

I actually used to smile a lot in pictures. I think I only stopped smiling when I got into fashion. Fashion stole my smile!

I think as I have got older, I have got a bit more relaxed, although you might not think that if you heard me screaming at my kids.

When I was on stage with the Spice Girls, I thought people were there to see the other four and not me.

I’m a very, very healthy eater. I eat lots of fish, lots of vegetables, lots of fruit. I don’t eat junk food.

You have to remember that when you are a performer you become a celebrity, but you are not saving lives. It’s not that important.

I think the sexiest thing about a woman is confidence, but confidence in a humble way, not in an arrogant way.

I don’t wear heels every day, but when I’m out, that’s how I feel confident.

Before I became famous I used to think there’s no smoke without fire. But believe me, there can be a fire without smoke.

When you’re in a position to be paparazzi-ed just walking down the street, you’d look a little daft if you were smiling all the time.

I have started smiling! I’ve mastered this smirk; it’s a smile that isn’t a smile.

I’m normally getting glammed for my events and when I can give my skin a break, I do.

I’ve always fantasized about wedding gowns. And it’s not because of marriage.

I did a lot of thrift and vintage. I would mix those pieces into some of the more inexpensive items from Express, Gap, Old Navy, and Clothestime.

My fashion is part of who I am, and though I was not born with these clothes on, I was born this way.

I dress the way I want. I don’t pretend to be someone I’m not.

I really like to look like a history book. I can look the 1940s, I can look 1970s hippie-chic, or sometimes I’ll pull that ’80s Brooklyn hip-hop kid with the door-knocker earrings.

I wouldn’t have turned out the way I was if I didn’t have all those old-fashioned values to rebel against.

I don’t want to pierce anything. I think it’s outdated. Belly rings and all are, like, old.
