I'm the messiest person I know.

I'm a sucker for sad disco pop.

I try my hardest not to read reviews.

Yeah, I'm not really a morning person.

I'm always sticking up for other people.

Being a chef would be too much hard work.

You need to have a life outside your career.

A good song is a good song whatever your age.

I get really frustrated if people don't smile.

I'm big in Russia, but no one's quite sure why.

It's funny how intimate it feels to get a text.

I didn't feel so great when I was a teenager, but who does?

A career in entertainment has a lifespan, like one in sport.

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

I do find it a bit disconcerting when your name becomes a brand.

Two premature babies was not a genetic thing; we were just unlucky.

It's hard to feel comfortable in your own skin when you're younger.

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

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

I would love to record something with PJ Harvey or Alison Goldfrapp.

Come rain or shine I walk short distances rather than taking my car.

There are a lots of clowns in our family - our house is a fun house.

I had my autograph down by the age of 13. I used to sign it everywhere.

I really love being in London at weekends - there's always so much to do.

I learned to stand up for myself at school where I was never too popular.

I don't think that old-fashioned idea of record companies exists any more.

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

My little boy Sonny makes me laugh all the time. He has good comedic timing.

Some people are really good at packaging themselves, but that's not really me.

Like my mum, I sometimes buy things I shouldn't and fill my house with rubbish.

Having a successful first album is one thing, but a successful third is another.

I'm all for consumer rights. I get very aggravated if I don't get a good service.

You learn that, when your children are all right, everything is right in the world.

Dance music is great, but it's not a time to be reflective or particularly wistful.

I've got a thing for footwear; I have about 200 pairs of shoes from all over the world.

I started my music career at 18 and for a long while I let other people handle my affairs.

My parents are good role models because they've worked hard and gave me a happy childhood.

I'm happy that I have a look, but I don't over-analyse whether or not it's beautiful or ugly.

For every person that says I'm the new Audrey Hepburn, someone else says that I look like an alien.

I was an only child, but then my parents resettled with different partners, and I am now one of six.

I've been DJing a little bit, so you get used to the fact that music sounds brilliant when it's loud.

In real life, I'm not super-posh but if that's the stereotype, I really don't care. It could be worse.

I'm too frightened of confrontation, so I will always tip - even if the service has been really shoddy.

Trust your instincts: they tend to see you right. By listening to them, at least you can sleep at night.

That's part of the reason I called the album 'Shoot From The Hip.' I did feel it was time to open up more.

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.

When it comes to my family I never quite know how protective I have to be, or what I should or shouldn't say.

I don't know why people think I'm polished - I often leave the house with buttons missing and ladders in my tights.

In terms of clothes, everything is on the same level for me. If I like it, it doesn't matter if it cost £200 or £2.

But I don't like working on lyrics publicly in the studio - I prefer to take them away and work on them in my bedroom.
