More people know who I am, but I don't feel any different within myself - I think that's the main thing.
— Anne-Marie
I love that my music is connecting with people, but I don't think there'll be a point where I feel like, 'Oh yeah, I'm famous now.'
I feel like no matter what I write about, I try to end up being the stronger person in the situation. Even in heartbreak, I feel like I'm a much stronger person because of that. I don't want to just write a sad song and still feel sad after that. I want to feel stronger and better.
I love seeing people collaborate to make great music!
I'm nervous before all shows.
I've written a lot of songs from watching women speak about women empowerment.
I try and be just completely me on stage. I try and put that across, and people seem to get that personality that I have, so I do try not to become two different people and two different faces.
My music is constantly changing because I am. I'm writing it and changing as I'm writing.
If I didn't do music, I would do something to help people out.
I think I got nominated in the MTV Brand New Top 10 because I'm 3x world time karate champion, and I'd probably just beat everyone up if they didn't put me in it. They were all scared!
People never believe it when they find out I'm a karate world champion. They don't see me as the type because I'm small and blonde.
I've had to learn not to read all the bad comments, or if you do, try and not take it into your soul, body, brain, and heart.
'Alarm' was about a boy that cheated on me, and when I found out, I wondered if I should give him another chance. I used to give a lot of chances to people hoping they would become better people, but this one didn't.
I've always been good at talking about my feelings; that helps with writing songs.
I feel at home wherever I am, to be honest.
I don't want to have to look good all the time - that's not realistic.
I honestly always really try to get people to share their feelings. I always say to everyone that communication is key.
Oh, God. Mate, I've written about 800 songs, and that's no exaggeration!
I'd love to work with Kendrick, Frank Ocean, The Internet, or Alanis Morisette!
I think realising that you're individual and unique is really amazing.
I'm so proud of my time in karate and what I achieved. It's part of me, so I don't want to leave it behind.
I love musical theatre. It's a passion of mine.
I know firsthand how long it takes to learn how to love yourself.
I think social media has been really great for me.
Luckily, now I think that I attract people that are really nice, like my fans, who are really lovely people. They are really encouraging, and they help other people out as well, which, it's really great.
I love doing my own thing, and I won't let anything get in my way.
It feels amazing to be on the MTV Brand New list. I was shocked when I got told - a good shocked. I'm proper happy about it.
Who needs a man? I don't.
I used to take life so seriously; I got so stressed.
I don't think I could write about something I've never experienced or felt; all my songs are about things I've been through.
It feels so good to be amongst some of the biggest legends in music - it feels quite surreal.
I want my tattoos to be a story of my life.
I do feel pressure to look good. But that's just not going to happen, because I have a double chin, and I can't pose. It's such a struggle.
For me, speaking my mind is a big part of my life, and I encourage other people to do that as well.
I love being busy.
If singing weren't happening, then yeah, I definitely would still be working hard at karate. I already have some teaching diplomas in it so would've continued to do that and maybe eventually had opened my own club! Maybe one day I still can.
I feel like I ask my fans to love themselves a lot, and and I do want people to love themselves. That comes from personal experience.
Whenever I start something, I will always do everything I can to be the best at it.
It's very important for females to feel empowered. It took me a long time to find that inside me.
The BRIT awards is a really great occasion, especially for us Brits, because it shows the talent and support coming from our country.
When it comes to how I portray myself online, I'm trying to be as real as I can and show people every side of what I do and not just put up selfies online of me in full done-up make up and stuff.
I think it's just constantly on my mind: wanting to help people, not just with music but with my words. I feel like I want to do that for people.
Every time I do photo shoots, my bottom lip and, like, my top lip are quivering because I just don't know how to look. Then the flash kind of makes me go boss-eyed sometimes.
I'm speechless! I am so happy to have won MTV Brand New!
'Alarm' and 'Ciao Adios' are about the same person, yeah.
I used to get so many nasty comments when I cut my hair short, and it upset me.
I feel like if I've written a song about something I haven't experienced, I wouldn't be able to perform it properly, and people would be able to see that. People can see right through that.
I think Rudimental was a massive part of my life and such a great place and people and learning curve to be a part of.
I've got 'trust' tattooed on me, and I have a tattoo on my finger that's for my parents.
It's so important that we all speak up on mental health.
