| | | Corinne Bailey Rae; her first role model was Courtney Love... Rae of sunshine
She's a modest, celebrity-shunning, ex-soul club cloakroom attendant whom fellow musicians compare to Billie Holliday. She hates FHM-style bikini shoots, dislikes Madonna and admires Courtney Love. Platinum-selling Yorkshire-born singer Corinne Bailey Rae tells Bryony Gordon about coping with stardom but staying on song
Sunday May 21, 2006
The Observer
''Music-wise, when she was growing up her inspirations 'were never people like Mariah Carey'. Instead, her first role model was Courtney Love. 'That was the first time I'd seen a woman in a really powerful position. I liked that she looked a bit rough, that her make-up was smudged, and her clothes were a bit messed up. She wasn't saying, "Do you like me? Do you think I'm sexy when I play like that?"' she intones in a mock-girly voice. 'She was saying, "Fuck you, it's about the songs." And that made perfect sense to me''.
