“When I was young I was listening to the Spice Girls and Destiny's Chil...” — Kate Nash Quote

“When I was young I was listening to the Spice Girls and Destiny's Child. I was singing 'Independent Woman' and 'Survivor,' and it was all about Girl Power and being with your friends. I don't think I was singing, 'Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me?'”

“I'm worried about being pigeonholed as an artist, especially a female one, but I think, essentially, it's the music which people judge you by.”

“It's really important to be a strong role model. It's one of my main things because I feel I've been exposed in such an extreme way to a lot of sexism.”

“I never thought I could do certain things like somersaults and jumping off the ropes and flips. When you actually learn to do it, you're really amazed with what your body can do.”

“I never wanted to be like: 'Oh, just because I'm a singer I can be in films now.'”

“The worst date I've been on was in L.A. with this guy I didn't want to be on a date with - he was just trying to take me to all these places and impress me but it was so cheesy.”

“All I know is that if we play well, we control our own destiny in terms of what we do.”

“I feel so blessed that I grew up in the age of the independent woman, the survivor. I had Destiny's Child telling me I didn't need a man to feel good about myself, and I want to carry on that message.”

“All the credit goes to Jesus Christ, Mother Mary, Shani Bhagwan and Ganpati. These are the four pillars of my destiny.”

“In life, you're always going to have obstacles put in your path and I am a prime example of from when I was a little girl to where I am now, you control your own destiny.”

“I make my own schedule, I control my destiny, I get what I work for, and the money is great.”

“Destiny wasn't on the side of Rajiv Kapoor. Worse actors than him have succeeded in this industry.”
