My time in UK

Wow, what a busy time I had in London, I didn’t really get to see any of the lovely sites of the city or do much shopping (much to Joseph’s relief!).

I met some lovely journalists who came along to interview me. There was such a broad range of people, so that made it even more interesting as they asked different questions.

Of course I often got the question about how people compare me to Madonna, and I answered as I think Madonna would also feel appropriate. I totally respect her as a fellow musician and of course it is most flattering to be likened to someone so talented and creative, but our music is quite different so we cannot really be compared.

As I said before, the mix of media was most brilliant. Amongst some of the things I did I was fortunate enough to be featured on Channel 4’s prime time news programme and The Sunday Express ran a double page spread.

I also spoke to Gaydar Nation Radio which was really fun. It’s great to be around English people; they seem really interested in not just my music but me as a person, that’s lovely.

I’ll be back in the UK  next Tuesday Wednesday (20 21May) for another appearance on GMTV. This time I will be joining Lorraine Kelly on her LK Today show. I’ll have to get up really early as it starts at 8.35am. I‘m so excited about it as I’ve seen Lorraine on the TV and she seems like a lovely lady (and I adore her giggles!). My single is also going to be reviewed by the very funny Paul O’Grady and guests on his show this Thursday (15th). These shows are seen by millions of people, so it's a wonderful opportunity for me.
