" There's always going to be someone out there who doesn't like what you do, doesn't like your style, your face. That's part of life. But I feed off that.

" I'm a huge fan of 'Heart On My Sleeve' - I think it has a 'Take That' feel to it! John Shanks and James Morrison wrote the track, and we spoke to Sony and asked if we could reference a 'Greatest Day'/'Rule The World' sound to make that epic ballad. I think it does the job. "

" Since becoming a pop star, I've experimented a lot more. I've gotten more creative with what I wear.

" You look at what One Direction has done and just say, 'That is just lucky;' it is not.
