We had to struggle for what we've learned, but we're so thankful.

In an arena, with Girls Aloud, it's a big production and you don't have time to talk to the crowd about the songs.

You spend so much time in a studio writing for other people, you forget you sing, you know?

I think sometimes certain behaviour of men is seen as normal or usual - but it's never normal or usual to the victim, ever. It's horrific.

I don't like the feeling of being unhappy. I don't like the feeling of being unsure about myself, or uncertain with where something's going - I would rather turn away. I just can't feel like that ever again. It's just horrible.

I feel like I had quite a bad time from about 2003 to 2007.

I used to do fake tanning because I was told that I didn't look great.

I want people to stop being so obsessed with the way they look.

We've got ourselves into a very vain state of society and there's more important things.

I want cancer rates to fall.

I'm frightened of the dark.

Me whole life, me whole childhood, me whole growing up, the competitions I went for and the weekends doing the dancing and all the shows, was to be a singer.

I was a 16-year-old little girl from this little town who just wanted to sing.

You've got to be your own best friend.

Time off doesn't sit well with me.

I think everyone just likes what they like. And fashion is something that I have found a lot of 'like' in.

I have some people in my life who are stunning on the outside but maybe not as beautiful on the inside and I have people in my life who are such lovely people so I see them as being really beautiful.

I was aware that there weren't many make up brands that catered for women for extra pale skin so I feel proud that I've been the person to do it.

Not everyone can like what you wear - sometimes you don't even like what you wear.

Kanye West would be my dream collaboration.

I'm just the biggest Kanye fan. I think he's a genius.

For years I felt like the ugly one in Girls Aloud.

People on radio and television started making nasty comments about me and I felt awful. Turning from a teenager into a woman is hard enough without dealing with snide comments.

Ultimately I'm quite a strong person.

Too much dairy and wheat gives me bad skin.

For years I hated being pale.

Anyone of any age or background who loved pop music liked our songs.

We were put together by the public, they voted for us to be in the band. So we were very much the public's band.

We made mistakes publicly.

I love Rodial, their products are amazing.

I do 100 squats while I brush my teeth.

I won't eat frozen food and I like to know where my food has come from. I don't like anything going in my body that's from a packet. I used to eat microwave ready meals, because we were so busy, but now I like to eat clean.

I don't model myself on just one person because I don't think that's healthy.

I had to learn to have confidence.

I don't ever want to work on something unless I feel really passionate about it and know I can give everything to it; otherwise it's not truthful and I hate that.

I'm one of four so I'm very family orientated. Me, my sister and my two little brothers are like the four musketeers; it's us against everyone else. We're like a little pack.

Having red hair was never an issue, I'm so happy I have red hair.

I truly love my hair but my skin colour was something I couldn't get my head around.

I always felt that people found women more attractive if they were tanned and there are some parts where I'm so pale, I'm blue and see-through.

I used to do a lot of dancing when I was younger.

When you're confident about something, people can't bully you about it.

I was never bullied at school.

A Chanel bag will retain its value if you want to sell it to a vintage shop. I've got Chanel bags from the 1980s and they have that fashion heritage aspect.

I used to always wear jeans, T-shirts and tracksuits because I was narrow-minded about fashion.

People called me Cilla when I was little because I was always singing and writing poems.

I started looking at women like Lily Cole and Sophie Ellis Bextor - beautiful women with their pale skin, rather than looking at the run-of-the-mill, tanned, average lady.

I was very young when I was using fake tan and I didn't care.

As I got older, I realised fake tan was rather messy and I wanted to look cleaner, classier and more demure.

I'm not ill, I'm just pale.

I've always been taunted about my skin.
