I never have crushes, apart from my husband Michael, I guess, because I was obsessed with him, and I didn't speak to him for nearly a year. I kept going into the restaurant where he worked to look at him.

There was one point where my mother was dying of lung cancer, and a journalist dressed up as a nurse and got in the house to get a picture of her, dying of lung cancer and stuff like that, and then you realise the fame's not all it's cracked up to be.

I'm not interested in gigs unless I really want to do them. I walked away from music in 1997, and then there was a greatest hits in 2002. Thank God, it didn't do too well because the record company wouldn't promote it.

I have regular peels and Botox. It's something I'll always do. People redecorate their homes every few years, and I see this as no different. Changing my face is like buying a new sofa.

In 1997, a severe depression hit me, but I didn't respond well to anti-depressants.

There's not a part of me, apart from the soles of my feet, which has not had work done.

My behavioural problems are non-existent because all my freakiness, I guess, is manifested in a visual way. And I never have come unravelled.

You shouldn't inflict yourself on the public when your fifteen minutes is up.

Over the years, I've had to learn how to deal with people who refuse to take me seriously. That's where I learnt the blunt side of my character.

I was brought up with an incredible amount of freedom and creativity.

I never wanted credit for being a wonderful person or a great human being or looking peculiar. I just wanted credit for the music.
