I had to weave and play around with a honey bear you know and I could wrestle with him a little bit but there's no way you can even wrestle a honey bear let alone a grizzly bear that's standing ten feet to eleven feet tall! Can you imagine? But it was fascinating to work that close to that kind of animal.

You can be around 100 people and be completely alone. People don't realize what it's really like.

I've always had a huge fear of dying or becoming ill. The thing I'm most afraid of though is being alone which I think a lot of performers fear. It's why we seek the limelight - so we're not alone were adored. We're loved so people want to be around us. The fear of being alone drives my life.

Sometimes when I'm alone I put on six inch heels and wear nothing else and dance around in front of the mirror and do my little stripper dance.

I'm a happy man because I am successful in what I do of course but what makes me most happy is I have people around me that I love and who love me back. This for me is the most important thing. Nobody likes to be alone.

And then when all around grows dark when we feel utterly alone when all men right and left pass us by and know us not a forgotten feeling rises in the breast.

I think I jump around more when I'm alone.

Well Jeff Buckley for me is one of the greatest singers I've ever heard. And the reason why is he has an amazing range amazing emotional power in his voice. And the music he put around it also just had this passion and this soul to it and this spirit to it that very few artists have and he passed at a very young age.

I want to be age appropriate. I don't want to be that girl you see walking away and she looks 25 and then she turns around and she looks 90.

I never felt totally 100% patriotically English... I'd seen a lot of the world by an early age - sort of spent a lot of time traveling around Lebanon and I'd seen Babylon and Damascus and all sorts of places in the Middle East by the time I was ten. Then we'd return to Ruslip in West London... Done a fair bit of traveling really.
