Personal Quotes

I don't understand the snobbery around it. It ages a person if they feel they've got no affiliation with reality TV - it's the epitome of what television is about at the moment. If you ignore that then you're 10 years behind. I'm very grateful to it - women like me, Leona Lewis and Cheryl Cole all had the capabilities, we just needed the opportunity to shine. How else are we expected to earn our stripes? (Speaking in 2010)
