Im quite private. And I never wanted to be the biggest star in the world, really. So in that sense Ive got a good balance of doing great shows, of making an appearance every now and then and writing music, and I dont really have to do much else. – Ellie Goulding

People always try to find my agenda, but I dont really have one. Its safe to say that I make pop, but I think that Im doing important music, too. Ive just always done what I wanted to do. – Ellie Goulding

I dont really have a style icon but I really admire the way people dress like Gaga, Rihanna and Gwen Stefani. Its good to be inspired by singers who write music and dress incredibly – rather than models and people in the fashion industry who dress immaculately anyway because its their style. – Ellie Goulding
