One thing I have frankly decided is that when it comes to political reform we have two conservative parties in British politics. Both the Labour and Conservative parties have constantly and repeatedly failed to honour promises they have made about reforming cleaning modernising our clapped-out system.

I think most artists create out of despair. The very nature of creation is not a performing glory on the outside it's a painful difficult search within.

Human society sustains itself by transforming nature into garbage.

No matter how many times people say it - 'Oh I'm just writing this for myself' 'Oh I'm just doing this for myself' - nobody's doing it for themselves! You're doing it for an audience. So whether I'm performing or writing a book or playing music it's definitely to be put out there and to be received in some way definitely.

To give money to a woman - and here I must speak as a man - is to deny her special quality her irreplaceability and reduce her unique amiability to a commodity. Money takes away her name while transforming her lover into a nameless customer of a market of appetites.

There is nothing so habit-forming as money.

I always was drawn to the performing arts. I started dancing when I was two. I sang loved to act and loved going to visit my mom on-set. But she wanted me to have a normal childhood so I wasn't really allowed to pursue acting till I got older.

Decisiveness is a characteristic of high-performing men and women. Almost any decision is better than no decision at all.

In a broken marriage it can be challenging and tough to get that work/life balance. I love performing but I also love being a mum and I hate having to choose between them.

Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend.
