The R’n'B singer, 19, on flowery fragrances and fried chicken

The smell that reminds me of home

“Peppermints! My grandad always has a packet with him. And I love the smell of
Southern home cooking, too – fried chicken, especially.”

The place I go to relax

“I love Le Panier – it’s a bakery in the US. I’ll have a blueberry muffin and
a huge cup of hot chocolate.”

My favourite scent

“Daisy by Marc Jacobs. I can’t get enough of it – it’s gorgeous.”

My special holiday destination

“South Carolina, where I come from originally. I love spending time there. My
grandma’s house has a pool, and when the whole family gets together there,
we always have lots of fun.”

The body part I’m most proud of

“My butt – I thought I wasn’t going to get one, then it appeared!”

My most fabulous outfit

“I wore head-to-toe Topshop when I was in the UK and appearing on This Morning
recently. I love showing off my figure!”

My miracle beauty product

“I love the effect of Aveeno Daily Scrub, £9.99, and I often use Dove Body
Wash, £2.37. It’s so important to take care of your skin. I use Moroccanoil,
£28, for my hair, too.”

My comfort food

“Fresh peaches with strawberries and cream. Mmmm, I’m getting hungry just
thinking about it.”
