learnt people society
I think, even in society, people get so caught up in how they look. I think I let that go, and I've learnt to not care.
cut date loudly shout
My first-ever date on my first tour, the sound completely cut out. So I had to go on and just shout loudly to the audience.
good great hope love
I love a good remix! Moto Blanco did a great one of 'I Hope'.
freedom given
I think jazz has given me freedom with my voice.
allowed love
I think that's what I love about jazz is that you can do what you want, and you're allowed to mess up.
good
I was really good at manicures, facials and make-up.
album cool definitely single work
I think there's definitely a dance album or at least single in me somewhere. I would want to work with a really cool Ibiza DJ, though.
buy family lovely rule taught
My nan taught me never to put value on possessions but to value family, friends and people. I buy lovely things and enjoy them, but they don't rule me.
brought lovely loving mum
My mum is a lovely woman, so strong but so kind and compassionate. She brought us up to be proud, loving and forgiving.
good holiday musical positive sorrow
What I loved with Billie Holiday is she had a good way of parlaying the sorrow with a positive musical twist.
believe good grew knew needed sing
When I was on the X-Factor, I found that I grew a lot as a performer. I knew I could sing but I didn't believe in myself enough... I needed to hear that I was good.
kids played
We grew up in Woolton, Liverpool. We didn't have much, but it was irrelevant. We played out a lot with all the kids on the street.
amazing bodies distracted sad stuff women
Women's bodies are amazing; what our bodies can do is incredible, so it's sad that we get distracted - all this stuff about being skinny, be this, be that - they're all distractions.
definitely encourage future home jobs kids nine saturday sheltered work
Work made me more streetwise because you can be so sheltered at home. I'd definitely encourage my kids Lillie and Karl, who are nine and seven, to get Saturday jobs in the future.
