I have legendary massive breakfasts at hotels. I don't hold back. I'll get there at 7A.M. and I'll be the last out at 11 A.M., having gone up and down the buffet seven times.
It's incredible to be working with Mr Armani and his team at Emporio Armani. I feel an affinity to the brand ethos and have been a long time admirer of their designs.
I'm not good at interviews, I'm not good at dancing, I'm not good at looking like I'm having fun. I never will be, I don't think. Unless I go to a life coach.
Reaching the height of 6 ft. 5 in.; I never expected to be that tall. I just shot up.
I happened to be in the right place at the right time.
I'm not trying to be a celebrity, Justin Timberlake kinda guy.
I try and sit on the fence because as soon as you voice any kind of opinion, people begin to think you're an idiot.
To throw a shoe at a man in Dundee is the equivalent of a kiss on the cheek and an embrace in London. Dundee is a very different place; they have their own rules.
I'm not angry, I'm not an angry person, but I do sometimes like playing with the perception of anger, as in pretending that I'm more angry than I actually am, and sometimes it works quite well.
It's all about where you're going, no matter where you've been.
There are a lot of mindless moments in my tunes.
There's only so much you can do with a male voice in dance music.
The thing is, any time anyone invades anyone on stage, the invader always looks really bad no matter what point they're proving - obviously that applies to myself too.
I know how to treat my voice to make it sound as good as it possibly can - which is still not that good.
