There never seems to be enough hours in the day. At the moment I have no time to make new music because I've been doing so much promotion for this new single.

In the UK and the US especially you've got a lot of throwaway artists who have their 40 million dancers and they do their show. There's many artists who would not do a live show because they know they can't.

You've got your Justins who have all the back flipping dancers and stuff, and then you've got Lemar, and he totally moves you without having to do all of that, and he's gorgeous.

I couldn't think of anything else I'd rather be doing.

Obviously I wouldn't be able to do it without the support of so many people.

Americans are so dedicated to their jobs.

Touring and promoting and recording take a lot of time, it's just getting the right balance that's important.

My daughter is wonderful and incredibly well behaved. I am very lucky. She will always be my priority.

My mum actually gave up work to look after my child, which is so touching.

Life is too short not to experiment.

I used to be a window cleaner. I got fired because I sometimes liked to drink the soapy water.

I really, really love being a mum and I absolutely love being a singer so I couldn't be happier.
