My goal is to be the best TV presenter, the best entertainer, the best singer. I still want to be the best dancer. I want to be the best at everything I do.
I had an early taste of fame. I was 20, going out with TV presenter Dani Behr and we'd have paparazzi chasing us. I'm not comfortable being photographed, though I accept it is part of the job. I had to ask myself, 'What comes first, being a celebrity or footballer?'
Whereas my producer literally worked on this thing for 10 years and because I gave that presenter credit to David Lynch, she to this day never gets credit. It really kills me.
On my gravestone, I want 'Here lies the singer,' not 'Here lies the T.V. presenter'.
'Senior Citizen' and 'Silver Surfer' are the new euphemisms. Unless you're a female presenter on TV, in which case you're ready for the knacker's yard at 35.
It doesn't annoy me but I think of myself as a presenter who is gay, rather than a gay presenter. It's a subtle distinction, but that's how I view it.
I couldn't care less about being a presenter at the Oscars.
I'm happy to be content-maker as well as curator, so I'm happy to also be a presenter for amazing things.
For a long time, my shows were about people walking out or about getting my gigs canceled or having the presenter not wanting to pay me.
I always wanted to be a 'Blue Peter' presenter when I grew up!
