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.
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.
freedom given
I think jazz has given me freedom with my voice.
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.
life quite studied
When I first studied Billie Holiday's life story years ago, I admit that I was quite judgmental.
brothers closest felt older protective sam younger
We have two older brothers and two younger sisters; Sam and I are in the middle, and I've always felt protective and closest to him.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
good great hope love
I love a good remix! Moto Blanco did a great one of 'I Hope'.
believe meant
I believe things are meant to be. It's the only way I can explain it because I had auditioned before to get on 'The X Factor' and 'Britain's Got Talent,' and I didn't get through - it was literally, 'No!'
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.
