î "It's [reality talent shows] manufactured, not real. If you want quick fame, go right ahead. But if you want to be a singer, my suggestion is to find another way."
î "When I was little, we lived in the countryside and I was obsessed with animals"
î "I can't comment in the way that I want because I'm told that the records won't get played on the radio. But there's time. Hopefully I'll one day be big enough to write what I want."
î "To tell you the truth, they are not going to say that I'm bad to my face. I know I'm not perfect, and I'm my own worst critic. I try not to take it too seriously."
î "When people are like 'Oh, you sound black' and all this, I'm like, I sound like me"
î "Music has no color. How can it have a color because you can't see it? How can you say that I sound black or white, or purple or pink or whatever?"
î "I'm not going to go sing pop just because I'm a white girl with blonde hair."
î "You've got to have good vocals to sing soul music, and I always liked it, ever since I was little."
î “I think it’s best to keep the two [names] separate, you know? Then I can put on my stage hat, and my family hat when I go home. It’s good for the rest of my family.”
î "I want everyone to just listen to it [my album]. If you don’t like it, then that’s cool, but, I want to give people a chance not to like it.”
î "I didn't write those songs, but I can relate to every one of them. It's soul music. I have to feel it, in order to sing it with a little bit of soul."
î "If am destined to be as big as Britney I will be. If not, I will not."
î "I suppose if I weighed 100 million pounds, I wouldn’t have gotten a record deal. But none of that should matter. It’s supposed to be about the music."
î "It's amazing that so many people have been interested in me in America, but I can't wait to get started in the UK because this is where my home is."
î "My mum fancies Simon Cowell. She keeps saying he's fit. Isn't that gross?"
î "I don't think of myself as a great singer at all, so it's very weird to hear stuff like that. Weird, and embarrassing."
î "Fame is something you have to have if you want to be successful. It's not something I desire."
î "I was born in the right era, just to show people that there are no lines between black and white in music."
