Quotes
ADD QUOTES-
Joss Stone: You know what? I'd give up fame tomorrow for a solid relationship. Looking back now, I wonder if it really was love between Beau [Dozier] and me. I think it must have been deep infatuation based on lust.
-
Joss Stone: (when asked if she was dating anyone in 2007) I'm not dating anybody. The only boyfriend I have right now is my music. It's that interesting.
-
Joss Stone: (on her most embarrassing moment) Okay, it wasn't that bad, but I was supporting Simply Red and it was like my first gig. You know I hadn't sang anywhere really, apart from a tiny little club. And I was wearing this really long blue skirt and a black thong, and it was one of them stretchy things, and I wasn't wearing any shoes or nothing, but I stood on my own skirt and pulled it down. And it was so embarrassing. I didn't think anybody saw it, but I will never forget that. It was horrible. (laughs)
-
Joss: (on her breakup with music producer Beau Dozier) I don't know what happened, but what can you do? I love him more than anything in the world.
-
Joss:(on the tabloids) Showbiz sucks...it's ridiculous, it's funny and it's all a joke. There are more interesting things to talk about than my hair colour, who I am dating or how short my skirt is. Millions of children are dying in Africa and they are talking about that shit.
-
Joss:(on the late Princess Di) As I grew up and learned more, I realized this woman was beautiful, she is an angel and to be part of this concert is amazing. If I wish to meet somebody when I die, she would be one of them. I would want a conversation with someone that lovely, that affected that many people all over the world. I want to talk to her one day and I will, I feel it.
-
Joss: (on her album, "The Soul Sessions", impressive sales) I didn't mean it to, but people kept on buying.
-
Joss: (on her album "Mind, Body, and Soul") I think my singing is so much better on this album. Your voice can never be the same, once you've started singing live as much as I have over the past year.
-
Joss Stone: If I am destined to be as big as Britney I will be. If not, I will not.
-
Joss Stone: I didn't write those songs, but I can relate to every one of them. It's soul music. I have to feel it, in order to sing it with a little bit of soul.
-
Joss: I don't believe that anybody's busy lifestyle can stop two people from being together if it's right.
-
