What made the biggest difference to how I looked and felt was cutting out all sugar.

The only person that can define you is you. Nobody else can.

I don't think 'X Factor' would put someone in front of the camera on purpose if they were ill. I don't think that's something they would do. There's psychologists who test out all the contestants before they go on.

I live hour by hour, day by day. I can't even plan a holiday. I go on holiday, like, the day after I book it.

Ever since I was a presenter on CBBC and used to see the 'Strictly' judges walking around Television Centre, I have wanted to be on the show.

I was a bit of a sickly child!

You can't judge others. You never know what's going on in their mind or body.

I've always got time for a relationship.

I love MAC Smouldering Eyes. The really creamy formula means it's easily smudged, creating an attitude for the evening.

If you like someone, even if its 2 A.M. and you've just finished work, then you get that lovely feeling where you want to see them.

I love burgers, and I love chips.

'Strictly' is definitely life-changing, and I hope it can open another pathway for me, career-wise. Maybe something a bit more musical.

Love comes in all different shapes and forms - from friendship and sisters and mums - and as I've got older, I've definitely learned that some of my happiest times have been when I've been on my own.

I trained as a dancer and did all that kind of stuff. And as a dancer, pressure's a good thing.

I don't believe for a second 'X Factor' would deliberately put someone through who wasn't mentally stable.

I like good food, and I'll eat until I'm full.

Hot yoga is something that I forced myself to get into. When I first did it, I thought, 'How on earth am I going to get through an hour and a half of this?' because I was so hot.

I think sometimes people say a comment and don't realise they're body shaming. I don't think people are body-shamers, maybe just body-judgers. People will say throw-away comments.

When your mates break up with their boyfriends, it's hard to see, but not all relationships last forever. Let's be realistic.

The best advice is to exercise; then you can eat what you want!

There's a lot of things you can't change about yourself, so there's no point moaning about it. I mean, I've got a really nonsymmetrical face, but I can't change it - well, I probably could, actually!

I didn't want to get skinny, just strong.

I'm not very good with words, weirdly.

We all have relationships - I've had relationships in my past, and I don't look back on them and think, 'That was a mistake.'

I know I could probably fake love for a couple of days, but I couldn't fake it for more than three or four days, and neither could you. I don't think any of us can.
