In the UK and the US especially you've got a lot of throwaway artists who have their 40 million dancers and they do their show. There's many artists who would not do a live show because they know they can't.

Americans are so dedicated to their jobs.

I used to be a window cleaner. I got fired because I sometimes liked to drink the soapy water.

Life is too short not to experiment.

My daughter is wonderful and incredibly well behaved. I am very lucky. She will always be my priority.

I really, really love being a mum and I absolutely love being a singer so I couldn't be happier.

Obviously I wouldn't be able to do it without the support of so many people.

There never seems to be enough hours in the day. At the moment I have no time to make new music because I've been doing so much promotion for this new single.

Touring and promoting and recording take a lot of time, it's just getting the right balance that's important.

My mum actually gave up work to look after my child, which is so touching.
