You look lovely in your photos and I envy you your figure. Do you have to work hard to keep your shape or does it come naturally?

SaintsChick wrote:Answer these so we can see what makes you tick?

1. Do friends have a pet name or nickname for you?
Wow... i have a lot of Nicknames, some crazy ones too. Spam, Jellytots, Mavis, Luggy haha... they're all so weird and the scary thing is, there's a lot more where they came from

2 If you had not become famous what job would you have liked to do?
Well, i wouldn't really class myself as famous but when i was younger i used to want to be a vet or work in a zoo... basically any job involving animals. I am such an animal lover, any animal or creature, i get so upset if someone even kills a fly.

3 What hobbies do you pursue?
Well besides the obvious like singing/songwriting, acting, dancing... i also love snowboarding, ski-ing, rock-climbing, Photography. Most of my spare time however, goes into songwriting. Oh and like any girl, i can shop till i drop!

4 You look great in your photos, what colour do you most like to wear?
Thank you. Well i own a lot of cream, pretty dresses. I would say that is my weakness when it comes to shopping, to the point wear i pick up a cream, pretty dress and before i can comment on it my friends will say "put it down sam!" hehe.

5 Do you drive? What would be your ideal car to drive?
I don't drive yet. I started lessons a couple of times but because of work, I'm always in different places and so i'm never able to commit myself fully to regular driving lessons which sucks because i would love to drive. As for my future car, i have always wanted a VW Camper Van or a Vintage Mustang in Cream hehe

6 What sort of music do you listen to?
Literally everything, i'm not into everything mind but i try to appreciate all genres of music. Simply because it will benefit me and help me grow as an artist myself. Instead of finding things you don't like about a song, find what you DO like. I grew up listening to bands such as ELO and Queen. I adore artists who can own a stage, i appreciate that more than anything. A powerful female artist, with a big voice, that can blow you away especially when singing live and who on top of that, is a great role model with good morals... that's something i appreciate immensely.

7 Who are your favourite singers/groups (past or present)?
The most current artist i appreciate is Jesse J. The things she can do with her voice fascinate me and the fact she can own a stage no matter what.

8 What are or were your favourite TV programmes?
As a kid: Postman Pat, Rosie and Jim, Tots Tv, Fireman Sam and Thomas the Tank Engine!!!
Now: I am still a Friends Freak and i love old british sitcoms like, Fawlty Towers, George and Mildred, Man about the house, On the buses, Bless the House.... I'm quite eccentric

9 What are your favourite movies?
I grew up watching Norman Wisdom films (he is my absolute idol) and Carry On films ... hehe, again i'm quite eccentric

10. What are your favourite plays?
I'm more of a musical girl really.

11. What are your favourite books?
I'm not a big reader at all, i wish i was. I feel on edge when reading a book, like there's something else more productive i could be doing, like songwriting.

12 Who is your favourite actor?
I don't really have a favourite actor or actress, i admire anyone who has been really successful by playing roles completely different from each other.

13 Who is your favourite actress?
Okay maybe i do have a favourite actress, Julie Walters!! I adore this woman.

14 Who is your favourite comedian /funnyman?
Sir Norman Wisdom.

15 Do you have any pets?
I do, i have a rabbit named Johnny English (my little brother named him hehe) and he lives in our house. I seriously think he thinks he's a dog. He climbs your legs at the dinner table because he'd much prefer to eat what we're eating than the rabbit food in his bowl, he lies by the fire, he licks you like a dog would, he really is like a dog.

16 What is your favourite meal?
My mum's veggie roast dinner... YUM

17 What is your favourite drink?
Peach Iced Tea

18 How old are you now Are you married or do you have a partner?
I'm 19 now, although i look about 12! haha. I'm not married either hehe, but i do have a fantastic boyfriend who i have been with for almost 4 years now. He's my best friend.

19 In private life are you a jeans girl or a skirts and dresses girl?
Skirts and Dresses or Pyjamas

20 Is there anything you regret not having done in your life so far and do you have any ambitions you hope to fulfil?
I have no regrets. I think everything happens for a reason and any knock backs i've had career wise has made me so much stronger today. I'm very happy and i know that if i want something bad enough, it will come my way but all in good time, when i'm good and ready and when i've learnt all the little lessons along the way that there is to learn - that in the long term will make me the best that i can be.
