thinking rant not-afraid
I'm not afraid of a rant, am I? I've got to that point where I've just become a woman; I think I've just grown.
song simple not-happy
If you are not happy with the song, don't sing it. Simple as that - no-one forces you to do it.
dream believe ambition
I knew I could sing. That one thing I did believe in was that I could sing, but then constantly getting rejected, it started to get me down. But my voice was always there and my dream and my ambition was always there when I went through bad times.
thinking people upset
I can't watch my first audition because it makes me too upset. I just think it is really sad. I look at myself and don't recognize myself. I do think fame and fortune changes people.
kids long the-end-of-the-day
I am lucky in that I love what I do, but it can still be hard to be away from the kids for long lengths of time. At the end of the day, all I want is to be with my kids, but it's worth it to create a future for my family.
brother growing-up home
Growing up, we didn't have anything. My mum wasn't well, so I was in three care homes then foster homes before me and my little brother went back to her. I was passed from pillar to post.
nice thinking people
Constantly having to think about money is not nice. People used to say, 'Being rich doesn't make you happy'. And I'd think, 'I've got no electricity, nothing - tell that to my empty fridge'.
falling-in-love fall care
You meet someone, you care for them, and you fall in love; it's what it is.
stupid thinking voice
People think that because of my nature and the tone of my voice that I'm stupid, and that's hard.
people firsts albums
My first album is a lot of my personal experiences. I wanted people to relate to what I've been through.
artist advice goes-on
My advice is, if you are going to go on 'X Factor,' you have to know who you are as an artist.
growing-up inspiration soul
I like listening to old soul music. I like Sam Cooke. When I was growing up, the first things I was listening to was Whitney Houston and Cher. They were really big inspirations for me.
love-you ifs havens
If you haven't got love, you've got nothing.
music playing realised stray types
I'm playing with music and working on different types of music. But I've realised that I can't really stray from what is my marker.
