“I’m Not Going To Take Any Shit”

Most people tower over me, it’s not something I think about.
It always amazes me when those questions get asked.
It almost implies you don’t understand what it is to love someone.
But you don’t really think about those things.
(Jamie Cullum)

I was lucky to have fame very early in my life so it never bothered me.
I am very humble about it, very grateful to God for all the wonderful things that happened to me.
I feel it could all be a dream.
When people like Yehudi Menuhin and The Beatles embraced my music – it was a miracle.
(Ravi Shankar)

I was shitting it on my first day, absolutely terrified.
I swear it was the most nervous I have ever been in my life.
I’m loving it, though, more than I ever thought I would.
I’m just trying to be me, to be honest and say what I think.
I’m not going to take any shit though – that’s just me.
I speak my mind.
But at the same time I am trying to make the auditionees feel OK, to give them some confidence and help them perform.
If that means singing along with them from my seat, then that’s what I do.
(Tulisa Contostavios)
