thinking sparkle magpies
I like sparkles; I think I'm a magpie.
thinking proud aristocracy
I'm proud of being British, but I think our aristocracy is overrated.
mean successful thinking
Anything that's on television as often as someone on 'The X Factor' is what's successful. That doesn't mean that I condone that or think that it's right. To be honest, I'd be the first to say I think it's a shame. But if that's the way it is then that's the way it is.
queens men thinking
A lot of men do have a fear of my ultra-femininity. Sometimes people say I look like a drag queen, that I look scary, but I think that's a fear of my confidence. Most women in contemporary culture pare down their femininity, so there's a slight androgyny about them, and I think men have got used to seeing that.
school thinking next-day
Ever since I was little, my mum used to choose an outfit for me and lay it on the bed so I'd know what I was wearing the next day. I never went to a uniformed school, so I always had an outfit - and I never really grew out of that, I don't think.
mother cancer thinking
I agree with cosmetic surgery for medical reasons - my mother had breast cancer and I think it's very sad when somebody has no choice in what happens to their body.
thinking outkast humour
I love Andre 3000 from OutKast. I think we'd complement each other, but I'm hoping he's got a good sense of humour.
thinking people sometimes
Sometimes people fear the truth. They'd rather not speak to you than know what you really think.
taken thinking fancy
No one ever chats me up; I think they all think I'm taken. Either that or no one fancies me.
children kids thinking
I think that there should be options available, quite early on, that if someone is recognised as a disruptive child, for them to be trained vocationally. Maybe if those kids were given the option to learn how to contribute to society on a practical level they wouldn't get into trouble.
successful thinking levels
I think I'd be a million times more successful and more iconic if I was a singer in the '40s. I'd be allowed a level of mystery, and I think I'd suit that decade.
thinking media records
I think initially, the record industry struggled a lot with digital media because there are a lot of aspects to it that can potentially destroy our industry.
thinking inner-beauty focus
I think everybody should focus on inner beauty.
children thinking people
I really like to please people, and I think it's a symptom of being an only child.
