She is a strong supporter of LGBT rights and equality.
In 2005, she fell down the stairs and broke her foot, which left her homebound. During that time, she started to write her first songs.
Personal Quotes (17)
[on why she misses MySpace] There's nothing that's replaced it for me for discovering independent music. Myspace was literally just **** deciding what was cool and putting things in the top eight. No sponsored people. No record labels in charge. No interaction from companies. There's nothing like that anymore. But I do think the internet is the future.
I've written for other artists and you literally meet these labels with all these names, and they'll point to one and tell you what song they want it to sound like. It's always the song that was number one in the last few weeks. Really, this is the music industry now? It's not very f***ing inspiring.
Feminism is not a dirty word. It does not mean you **** men, it does not mean you **** girls that have nice legs and a tan, and it does not mean you are a bitch or a dyke. It means you believe in equality.
[2015] Smokers [a]r[e] dumb.
[2012] Gonna be so sad when this series [Big *******] is over
[...] This so sad! Gonna miss it so much! [...] I'm actually ******!
[2012] Can't wait for next year's BB [Big *******]! So excited.
[2013] Oh great another ********* perfume marketed as smelling like "sex". Can't wait for **** at Christmas to smell like semen/sweat & wet fannies.
I don't get how people want to read books on computers because it must be really bad for your eyes, for starters. I love the smell of books and I just like the whole experience of it. Maybe I'm just old-fashioned, but I like that whole experience - it's the same as I like putting on a record or a CD and waiting for it to arrive or buying it and waiting to listen to it in full.
The more you relate to something or somebody speaks to you, it means more. I think that putting yourself out there like heart-on-sleeve, is really important.
I've been accused of deliberately hamming up my accent and dropping letters, but that's just how I speak - I used to be a chav.
Jealousy is not a nice feeling, I **** feeling jealous. But if you can admit it and laugh at yourself, then that's a good way of dealing with your feelings.
People don't know how to deal with stress and depression, so they're nasty to other people because it makes them feel better about themselves.
I think the media put more pressure on women, especially in regards to the way they look and how they're supposed to behave.
People are scared. People are generally xenophobic - they're scared of what's different. If you're ignorant as well as scared, then you might end up hating something that you're scared of.
I feel like women, especially in music, aren't really given as much respect as men. Sexism really exists.
I think it's really important to always own up to the things that you're not good at and the feelings that you have which are ugly.
Just because you have political beliefs or feminist beliefs, you don't have to like everybody, you don't have to like everything.
