weight bits pregnant
I'd already put on a bit of weight before I got pregnant.
bad-day faces normal
If the press see you looking normal they can suddenly be 'oh, she's got a spot on her face, she's having a bad day'. That can be quite cruel.
first-love ballet firsts
I always wanted to act and sing, but my first love was ballet.
ballet crafts given
Ballet is such a disciplined craft and it has given me a good grounding.
dance wanted
I just wanted to perform, to sing, dance and act.
heart born womb
I came out of the womb born to sing and dance. I have to follow my heart.
moon upset married
When I found out I was pregnant, I was over the moon about it, but I was upset I wasn't married!
goodbye baby boys
I wanted to have a go at a pop career. My first single, 'Baby I Don't Care', was a hit, and the second, 'Bye Bye Boy', reached the Top 20.
stars names plot
I'm very close to my family. Not like these big stars - not mentioning any names - who lose the plot and don't know who they are.
cake scary arms
The prima ballerinas who taught me were far more scary than Gordon Ramsay. They'd scream at me and pull my legs and arms, so after them Gordon was a piece of cake.
clever dad little-sister
I was born and brought up in Liverpool with my clever little sister Jemma, who is 14 and wants to be a vet. My mum Jane is an administrator and my dad Peter is a taxi driver.
best chips lots meals snack steak washed
I would snack on crisps and chocolate and my meals weren't the best. I ate lots of steak with creamy sauces, chips and peas, washed down with wine and a pudding.
mum work
I want to be a young mum and if I didn't have to work I'd have them tomorrow. I'd like three!
I'm comfortable with my body but I don't like my bum - I think it's too big.
