I always remember smelling Chanel No. 5 at home - my mum used to literally pour it, and she rocked it.
I get so nervous, I get belly pains before I go on stage.
Fashion is this obsessive narrative that people don't understand but they can't stop looking at.
Some people may look at you almost like a fantasy at times, you know; some people don't think you're real. Because people forget that celebrities are humans too, sometimes.
I used to wait in line for Jordans. That's how much of a freak I was.
I've loved music. It was my first everything, but fashion and clothes is just the next step.
'Glamour's always special to me; they gave me one of my first U.K. covers, and I was so excited when I found out I got a cover for it, so, I always, always have a special place in my heart for 'Glamour.'
Jessie J is a great, great girl. I'm a friend and have always been a fan of hers. I'm happy to see her doing her thing.
I think music will thrive where it wants to.

The album is never finished until it's on the shelves!
I have a few properties, some in the U.K., some in the States, some in Kosovo. It's a nice little empire - I'm trying to create something so my family can be all right.
