I'm a bit grungy - I love wearing boots. But I also love putting on a beautiful white dress and jewels. I have those two alter-egos.

I'm a bit of a like girly-girl, really, I like flowery stuff.

I'm never happy with my face, my hair, I haven't really got any boobs and I'm not really that tall.

I'm not afraid, as a writer, of being emotional. I'm obsessed with human emotion, body parts, physicality.

I've always been fascinated by the human body, but you can become quite morbid and paranoid if you think too much.

I've always said that Adele has turned so many people on to British singers - whether female singers or just like music from this country in general.

It took time to really build myself a reputation as a good live performer, a musician and an artist.

It's so important to take vitamins. People always get ill on tour because of the close proximity in the bus with everyone.

Men are wary of me because they know, by listening to my music, that a relationship with me will be quite deep.

Mumford & Sons' music appeals to a lot of America. I'm really proud of them.

My guiltiest pleasure is... chocolates with strawberry cream and trashy television - 'Geordie Shore,' 'Katie,' etc.

My hairdresser in the U.K., Adam Reed, has his own line, Percy and Reed, and it's really good. And I use Moroccan Oil and Kerastase as well.

My voice has been very, very produced, and very treated - but then, also, it hasn't.

Now, if some panic hits me, you have to sort of be friends with your body, it's like your body will work against you.

One of the most powerful feelings in the world is after a really, really long run.

The nature of how we are as human beings is that we're much more interested in being critical rather than praising something.

The very first song I wrote was about a boy that I was obsessed with.

What people don't understand is that how you are as an artist depends on how you are emotionally.

When I heard Bjork's debut, that was when I first realized that I could be a singer, even with my unusual voice.

You get to a certain age and you can't judge yourself on your dad or your parents.
