Corinne Bailey Rae has revealed her secret to staying in shape - good genes!
The singer says her slim physique is thanks to her father:
"My dad is really skinny. I've got his genes. I can pick him up! Only a little bit off the ground but it's significant!"
Corinne is about to embark on an eleven week tour to promote her second album The Sea and the 31-year-old Grammy winner says she enjoys life on the road:
"I never get home sick. I'm with all my closest friends so it's like you are a family. It's so much part of the work. I think if you didn't like the travelling, you wouldn't do it."
But it seems Corinne does struggles with being boss when she and her band are travelling:
"It is a difficult thing. Most of the people I'm working with are my close friends so I'm still working on it. I don't like to tell people what to do but at the same time I have an idea of what I want so I just try and find a nice way of running things," the singer said.
