concerts hold musical perform singing thousands west
In my head, I have the most sensational singing voice. I perform concerts to thousands in the shower. The reality is I can hold a tune. The dream is a West End musical one day - no, really!
complex hate looks slightly talking tall whether womanly worry
I hate talking about my height, because I don't feel like a tall person... When I see a tall woman, I'm always slightly like, 'Whoa.' It looks weird, but that could be because of my complex about it, my worry over whether it's womanly to be that tall.

obviously people
People are obviously going to mention what I look like, but it's a shame it has to be a key part. I can't just be Miranda.
babies bit ok
I think babies are a bit boring, actually. They're OK when they're older; they make you laugh. I think we all think that, really - we just don't say it.
less pleased sitcom version
I am pleased to say that as I get older, I get less and less like the sitcom 'Miranda.' She is really a clown character, a heightened version of the 20-something me.
idiotic life people
People come up to me and say, 'Can I just thank you for writing my life?' And I reply, 'I'm glad someone else is as idiotic as I am.'

I have a fantastic method for anti-ageing. It's eating. Plumps out your skin beautifully.

My Dear Reader Chum, a very hearty hello to you. What an honour and privilege it is to have you perusing my written word.
