“I remember being four or five, not understanding how to be funny, so just going around the house and my mum and dad's friends, confusing adults by saying weird things.”

“The comic I can now never enjoy again is Bill Cosby. He was truly one of the first comedians I got into.”

“I thought, 'Anyone can make up a lie, but making the truth funny is really hard.' But I actually had more problems with people believing me when I told the truth on stage.”

“I see so many women thinking other women are their enemies - especially when they don't have a job or a guy or whatever. It's like, 'I don't have what I want, and she does, so she must be my enemy.' I find it confusing and not fair and sad.”

“When people stare at you, and you read about yourself in papers - at 13, it just got very confusing. I thought that if this is what it's like to be famous, I don't like it one bit.”

“My teenage years were pretty - I have regrets about those years. Obviously everyone knows that as a teenager it's really confusing and your feelings are so raw.”
