Nobody says anything real today. Most of those girls have their songs written by other people. It annoys me, because 'eh oh eh oh ahh' is not a chorus
I still think I'm fat. Right now I'm worrying about how I'm going to lose weight after the pregnancy. I feel like an elephant, but I do get the occasional sexy pregnant day where I think I look great.
I like them old and rich.
As for drugs, it annoys me that people think it`s the worst thing in the world compared with, say, not paying your taxes. If you don`t pay tax, you may be stealing from someone who needs an operation. As for me and drugs or alcohol: No thanks, I`m abstaining for a while.
I'm really convinced I`m not talented at all, and I'm sure that people are just about to figure that out.
But Dad and I are the only father-and-daughter acts who have both had No. 1 songs in England.

I like to be able to get up and go and buy a pint of milk without bumping into 20 people I know.
I love MySpace; it's done an amazing job for me and it's been insane over the past couple of weeks, but I'm not a poster girl for them.
I am a weapon of massive consumption
There's a certain amount of what I wear that I wear for irony.
I've actually broken up with boyfriends for inspiration.
