All I want to do when I have time off is to have a laugh with my school friends and go down the pub.
From Samantha Mumba
I'm having a great time. It's like I'm on some ridiculous big roller coaster not knowing what's happening next, but just having a great time on the ride.
There are a lot of female artists my age around at the moment, but they're all American and blonde and blue-eyed and smiley. I'm totally the opposite of that. I want to show a bit more attitude and I have an opinion.
When I'm out with a group I hide in the corner and get legless. I just make sure my friends shield me.
People watch me, waiting for me to slip up, so my privacy has gone - but that's a price you pay.
I'm not into the whole showbiz scene.
I loved being behind the scenes and finding out how they make movies.
But I've had to act and not depend on my voice so much.
But I'm not crazy about the designers like Prada and Gucci. I hate going into designer stores.
I'm based in London now. I'm renting an apartment, making my own little home. It's great because I am around people all the time and I need my own space to get away from it all.
