Being on stage taught me how to apply eyeliner.

I don't get much sleep, so I have really bad bags under my eyes.

The best thing is to lie in a warm Epsom salts bath for 15 minutes and then go straight to bed. You will sleep really well afterwards.

I need help to ensure I grow old gracefully! So now I always apply moisturiser and foundation with an SPF, to protect my skin from the sun.

In the dance world, it has to be in your genetic make-up - your body has to suit the training.

I do a Zumba class at least twice a week, which entertains me and keeps me fit, and I have two dogs that I walk regularly.

I did ballet from the age of five, but what I loved was my gymnastics. I kept the ballet going because of the gymnastics, then found I was going to be too tall.

Looking after myself is something I probably have to be much more conscious of than the average person.

Confidence comes from other places, not just how you look.

I dye my hair, and I use teeth whitening strips. Unless I burnt myself or damaged my skin, I wouldn't have cosmetic surgery.

Diets don't come into it. You need variety and to have a good source of greens, protein, and nutrition. It is about health rather than looking right.

I loved gymnastics, and my gymnastics teacher said ballet was essential to help my dance routines in competitions. I only really went because my friends were going as well. It wasn't this kind of hidden love. Then, slowly, my friends stopped going and I thought, 'I like this. I am going to stay.'

The jogging machine makes me go insane with boredom.

My main vice is Herta frankfurters - it's amazing that they stay fresh for ages. They're not very healthy, but they are my treat.

Ballet requires movements which are very unnatural. With every step, you do a circular movement of the hip. You turn out from the hip and make your knees point out to the side instead of forward.

My 'new' knee now feels like a bionic knee compared with my old one.

I never imagined I'd be a presenter on television, but I'm happy to put myself out of my comfort zone.

My husband is Australian, and my family is scattered around the U.K. and France mostly, but we try to get a big group together for the holidays.

Dance is a great way to express yourself.

If you have enough ambition, you can create talent!

For me, in my life, dyslexia has been a little bit of a blessing. It helped me find my strength and directed me towards what I really wanted to do.

Being a full-time mother is one of the biggest jobs in the world; it's like another career for me. I love every moment of it - even the challenge of making cupcakes.

For every dancer, no matter how amazing your career, there's more to life than ballet. Being adored by your audience, it's only part of the story.

Life is short, so go for things you enjoy.
