I wash my face and put moisturiser on; I've never had a facial, and I don't get my hair or my nails done. I just do it all myself. Imelda May facefacialhair Change image and share on social
In my head, I consider 'No Turning Back' my 'dipping the toe in the water' album. It was mostly covers of favorite songs, and there were three originals in there. So, it feels like it was just my album to see what the temperature of the water was. Imelda May albumbackcover share on social
When I tell people that I lost my baby weight through breastfeeding, they think I'm exaggerating. But it was brilliant for that. It is great for bonding with your baby. It is hard when no one else can feed her, but it was worth it for me. I loved it. Imelda May babybondbreastfeed share on social
I was brought up with beautiful music - Nat King Cole and Glen Miller from my dad, and my mum loved Judy Garland and Doris Day - brilliant stuff. Through my brothers and sisters I heard David Bowie and The Specials, The Carpenters, Meatloaf and The Rolling Stones. Imelda May beautifulbowiebrilliant share on social
I never got formal training in music. I would just sit with my ear to the speaker and my hand on the needle. I'd listen to Wanda Jackson and think, 'How did she do that?,' and lift the needle and try it myself. Imelda May earformalhand share on social
I couldn't think of anything worse than hating your own music and having to play it every night. It would be a nightmare. Imelda May badlyhatemusic Change image and share on social
I got my first leopard print coat when I was 15. I nearly got beat up, but I was happy with it. Imelda May beatcoathappy Change image and share on social
I've used a stylist twice, and that was when I didn't have time to go shopping or pick up an outfit for a photo shoot. I think you should dress yourself, have fun with it - it's only clothes. Imelda May clothedressfun Change image and share on social
I'm on the road earning my money. I didn't get any million pound record deals. Not unless you're Jedward! I'm doing very well, but I still have a mortgage to pay off. So I'm on the road. Imelda May dealearnjedward Change image and share on social
I would love to work with Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, B.B. King. I'd love to do something with Arctic Monkeys, Miles Kane, and The Last Shadow Puppets. If I got a call from Juliette Lewis or PJ Harvey, or Chrissie Hynde, that'd be a thrill. Imelda May arcticcallchrissie share on social
