Blonde symbolises sexuality and power - it holds very different connotations. The archetypal star has always been blonde.

I'm masquerading as an innocent pop star.

I often take things I find in vintage crawls and hand them to a very good seamstress, who then replicates them and makes a more robust version in different colors, with a pocket for my mic pack.

This obsession with celebrity culture is really unhealthy. I don't want to live my life like that, and I don't want to be a typical pop star.

I've read every Madonna biography. I've also looked up every pop star to see how they first made it. The biggest thing I learnt was that you have to be pro-active. You can't be scared.

I think celebrity culture and sexuality in pop music is really important, but I want there to be an alternative for people.
