The second someone tries to put me in a box, I will do everything to rebel against that.

I don't think that I'm a pop star. On paper, I'm bad at being a pop star with the conventional idea people have.

One thing I don't understand is how people want you to replicate your past successes. Being an artist should be about freedom and not just becoming one thing, because I think that's terrible and boring.

I'll listen to 3 artists on repeat for more than a month.

I've always wanted to write pop music. I never wanted to be cool or make a hipster record.

I've wanted to write good pop music, beautiful pop music - not just throwaways. I've always wanted to make it sound luscious and beautiful and cinematic.

I'd love to work with Cher Lloyd; that would be my dream person to work with.

I hate the idea of people thinking that I'm just a little girl who goes into studios with pop producers, and they work their magic.

I like befriending my collaborators because I'd rather make music with people I like than people I pretend to like.

My philosophy is to treat people how you want to be treated.

My family is average. I didn't have a crazy life as a kid.

There are days where I can go into a room full of people, talk to every single person, and feel completely at ease, and feel like making every single person laugh, and feel like everyone's having a great time. There are other times where I go into a room of people, and I literally want to run and hide.

I make pop music, but I do it on my own terms. I'll never play the game, so to speak, just for success. I'll always follow my heart and make the music I want to make.

I want my music, whether it's sung by other people or sung by myself, to affect the way the Top 40 radio sounds. I want to heavily influence it with things that have come directly from my brain.

When I first started, I wasn't really aware of anything in the industry or aware of who I really was. I just put my music out there and tried to get as many people to hear it as possible. I hadn't really thought about the kind of music I wanted to make.

I wish I could rap! I wish I could rap like Azealia Banks or Lil Wayne or someone like that... Twista. He's super fast.

I know some people are like, 'I'm depressed, and I'm a struggling artist,' and that really works for some people, but that doesn't work for me. I have to be really happy, even when I'm writing my depressing songs; I have to come through that stage before I can write.

I always see colors when I listen to music. It's difficult to explain, but when I hear the music, I think about gold, blood rushing... I like to keep it really warm and glittery.

I feel like when people meet me, I'm very much not what they expected I would be. I'm not a diva, and I'm not mean to people or have weird rules.

For me, I'm very visually inspired. I'm more inspired by photographs and movies than I am by listening to other music, so for me to create an amazingly intense visual live show is a dream, so I would love to be on that level for sure.

I think the best artists are the ones who constantly change - Madonna, Bowie.

I think what women think is sexy is what is sexy. Girls eating pizza are massively sexy.

I really just want to change the way women think about themselves. A lot of young girls are quite lost.

I know when I've written a good song when I can imagine the video. If I can't imagine the video straight away, I'm not gonna put it on my album.

I think that U.K. audiences, in general, are very closed off. Very judgmental.

I always Google myself. It's horrible.

To be honest, for me, my main workout is when I'm on stage. Even though I make pop music, I don't think I perform in the classic 'pop star' sort of way. I'm very active on stage; I always end up dripping in sweat afterwards. It's always like a full-on, wild performance, so that's pretty much like my exercise, I would say.

If I'm really honest, I can't cook. I'm, like, the worst, worst, worst cook in the world.

I think I'm a girl's girl in the sense that I support women a lot, and I'm definitely all for girl power, but I think I'm quite a tomboy at heart - even though I love my fashion and dressing up, I think my essence is very boyish.

I count myself as not only just an artist, not only as a singer, but a business woman. I write my own songs; I write my own video treatments, manage other artists. I write for other artists; it's not just about getting on stage and singing a song.

I've heard people say to me, 'How can you claim to be a feminist when you dress like that?' I wear a lot of slip dresses and nightwear and stuff. People always question my credibility because of that: 'Oh, are you selling sex? Are you doing this or that to be recognized more or to sell your music?' No, it's just a fashion thing for me.

Being nice is awesome. You have more fun; you meet more people.

I feel like I'm a pop star without being a diva.

I never set out to be a cult cool artist. I always made music that I thought was pop.

I'm very selfish in that I make music for myself, not for other people; I kind of only think about other people afterwards when it's out.

I had this dream to be a rapper when I was younger.

The fashion of the '90s is a massive inspiration to me. My favorite video of all time is 'Say You'll Be There' by the Spice Girls. That's the best styling ever. If I could dress like that every day, I would.

I love the Nineties because more than any other period of time, there was such an eclectic mix of styles going on. More so than in the Sixties and Seventies, when there was an overriding look and sound.

You can't like everything! You hate some stuff! Say what you hate! Like, I hate Pitbull, and I don't care!

I'm not super easy to talk to a lot of the time. I'm just kind of weird.

I used to worry about being cool. Now I realize that I genuinely don't care.

I'm very scruffy and messy in the way that I am and always have been.

Most of my youth I spent being obsessed with Baby Spice, so she was my favorite for a really long time. Now that I'm older, I actually really like Posh Spice the best. Nineties Victoria Beckham is perfection, I think.

Sometimes I feel like I was born in the wrong year - I think it would have been cool to be alive in the '60s.

I'm actually really bad at the Internet. I'm never scouring it to find new artists or new anything.

I believe I deserve everything that could maybe happen. And I don't think that's a cocky thing to say because I've worked really hard, and I've never bitten the hand that fed me, and I've always been really respectful.

If there's intelligence behind an opinion, then I'm all for expressing it, but I would never just start a fight with someone for the sake of it - that's just not me.

My one thing is respect. I don't care about anything else. You should respect everyone around you - the people who work for you, peers. Be classy.

Pop music is getting so emo. It's great. Emotional girl for life. I see myself in the centre of that.

To me, 'X Factor' is like Vegas. Fake, twisted, but kind of wonderful. Maybe I'm sick, but I find the whole thing quite funny sometimes.

I see music in colours. I love music that's black, pink, purple or red - but I hate music that's green, yellow or brown.

I like working really fast. The best ideas are the first ones that come into your head - so why bother thinking of any more?

I quite like doing laundry. I find it quite like relaxing.

I made video art for quite a long time, and I made this video covering myself in burgers and dancing to Major Lazer and doing covers of Britney Spears songs... I can't remember how I got there, but my teacher said he'd have to fail me because it had mild nudity.

I've passed up on many a thing that could have made me a big artist or something. Like, I was offered a feature on a Christina Aguilera song and I turned it down. It just wasn't right. She's cool, but it just wasn't right.

I was only 14 when I started playing the east London rave scene. At the time, I was so captivated by everything. I didn't ever wanna progress out of that scene.

People would always ask me how I came up with my music and what it felt like to make music, and I would always see colours, and then I found out that that was synaesthesia. It helps me understand songs and what I like.

There are some signs that can indicate she might be interested. Woman might do subconscious things like play with their hair or orient their body towards your direction.

Just be funny. Funny always goes over well, so try to think of something funny to break the ice rather than being weird or using pickup lines.

Anyone that thinks 'pop' is a dirty word is living in the '90s.

To be honest, my usual makeup is the same as in my music video looks.

When I was younger, I was quite scared of a red lip. But I started listening to '60s French ye-ye pop when I was making 'Sucker.' I was looking at Brigitte Bardot and those kinds of girls. When they were dressed up, it was often a bold red lip.

I think big brows are pretty cool.

My hair is naturally super curly. But I really don't do so much to it. I just sleep on it and see what happens.

I've been really inspired by Paris Hilton, small dogs, and a glitter, luxe lifestyle.

I'm a really big Rihanna fan, and I think she's such an incredible artist.

I love In-N-Out!

Making my first record, I was really inspired by all the color palettes Sofia Coppola has in her films.

The scenes in 'The Virgin Suicides' where Elle Fanning is ice skating are really amazing.

On my first album, I felt like, if it was going to be turned into a movie, it would have been directed by Sofia Coppola. She creates this kind of pastel-colored palette that's very whimsical but also very stagnant. And that's really how I heard the record.

I think it's cool to be a rock star; I don't think there are many. There aren't many who speak out and take risks. And I think that's important.

From the moment I stepped into this industry, I've always had to fight for my ideas and for my voice to be heard.

When I got signed, I had just turned 16. I felt like I had to continuously have these confrontations with older men who were doubting my ideas because I was a woman, because I was 16.

I actually think it doesn't even matter what age you are or what sex - though that does play into it sometimes - you always have to fight in any kind of creative world because nobody knows your own brain and your own creative ideas better than you do.

In the '90s, there was always this continuous pitting of women against each other in the media, trying to make them battle it out.

I definitely went through a phase where I wanted to be a fashion designer when I was younger... But I certainly wasn't very good at it.

Fashion is instant. It makes you feel something the second you see it on a body... whether you love it or hate it, or it offends you, or it makes you laugh or cry.

I always love wearing Vivienne Westwood. Her dresses just seem to fit me perfectly, and she makes dresses for girls with curves - I love that.

I always think about fashion when it comes to making music and music videos... what the colours will look like, what the material will be, how will it work with the sound of the music.

All my favourite pop songs are the most stupid ones, the ones that are the most obvious.

I think the process of 'I Love It' becoming such a big song opened my eyes to sides of the industry that I'd never been aware of, which I wasn't so into.

My voice is different, but I don't think I'm the only one with a different take on pop music.

I've actually done a cover of 'Train in Vain' by The Clash with Viv Albertine - which was originally written about her.

I get on with people. I don't hang out with people who aren't nice. It's like, be real or go home.

You should respect the people you are around.

Females should stand by each other, especially in an industry which seems to try so hard to pin us up against each other and make us fight. It's not about that for me. I refuse to be sucked into a twisted world of insecurity and lose who I am.

I think debate is good. Everyone has an opinion, and it's definitely healthy to voice those.

Most of my favorite artists are strong females.

I think it's awesome when a woman is in control of everything she's doing, especially in an industry like this where people think that doesn't happen often, but it really does - well, from my knowledge and how I manage my own project.

Some people think of feminine as just being pretty and quiet and sweet, but I also think being feminine is being angry and also being sexy and aggressive and passionate.

If you're in control of everything, then no matter what it is, you can make that feminine.

I always see my songs in colors, and I'm often more inspired by movies and photographs than I am by other songs when I write my music. I'm also inspired by fashion, and I want my music to be a visual painting of what's in my mind.

Whenever I'm writing a song, if I have an idea for the music video, that's how I know it's a good song.

I just feel like the songs I write lend themselves to this girl-power feeling, and those are the artists that I looked up to when I was younger.

There's something about girls together, uniting, that I just thought was cool.

I love karaoke and totally hog the mic when I go out and do it with my friends.

I loved Justice and Uffie and everyone signed to the label Ed Banger. They were really influential to me when first started making music.

I wrote a song for Icona Pop which boosted my confidence quite a lot.
