“I've had years of teasing about my red hair, but I definitely think it...” — Ed Sheeran Quote

I've had years of teasing about my red hair, but I definitely think it toughened me up. If you're ginger, you end up pretty quick-witted.

I think encouraging young people to twerk might be a bad thing. It's a stripper's move. If I had a daughter of nine, I wouldn't want her twerking.

Be original; don't be scared of being bold!

The main thing that you have to remember on this journey is, just be nice to everyone and always smile.

In my eyes, there's no one better than Stevie Wonder. He's a top dude.

It wasn't Ginger's Island, it was Gilligan's Island.

I was super-obsessed with the Spice Girls. Ginger was my favorite. They had a tour in 2008, and my home girls went, but I didn't have the money to go!

I spent 19, 20 years of my life being terrified about what I looked like. I was a ginger white kid.

When I realised I had a facility for humour, I latched on to it, and it gave me confidence and I built my personality around it. So I subconsciously made myself become the funny one so that would be my label rather than the ginger one or the red-faced one.

I grew up in Harrow, London, with two sisters. I am the middle child and a natural ginger, so fiery by nature.
