Bromfield: "I'm not a wannabe Miley Cyrus"

Dionne Bromfield has insisted that she became a singer for the right reasons.

The 'Mama Said' star told The Times that she did not start performing to become famous.

Bromfield said: "I'm not a wannabe Miley Cyrus. But you probably mostly get that in America - the Disney Channel, you know what they're like. They've got how many kids under their roof? I'm not doing it for the fame, no.

"If I was doing it because I wanted to see myself in magazines, what's the point of me bothering? I'm doing this, I'm not trying to be cocky, because I know I can sing."

Of her godmother Amy Winehouse, she added: "What Amy does with her life is what Amy does with her life. I can't sit there and say, 'Don't do this and don't do that'.

"But obviously it's not nice reading something about anybody. But she's on top now. She's getting better.

"She's helped so, so, so, so, so, so much on my album, so much. She's down there all the time with me, in the studio, doing her own stuff but mostly my stuff."
