Duffy takes time off to unwind from pressure of Brit awards
June 12th, 2010 - 5:14 pm ICT by ANILondon, June 12 (ANI): Welsh singer Aimee Ann Duffy has revealed that she had to hide away after winning three Brit awards as the pressure was too much to take.
Duffy, 25, who presented a gong at the Glamour mag awards, admits she became a recluse so she could go back to her roots.
“It got a bit scary and overwhelming. I just had to go away and remind myself what I was doing it for. It’s the music that kept me going,” the Sun quoted her as saying.
“In music you have to go back to your roots, you have to make music from the heart. And so I guess I had to hide away,” she stated.
The singer has been holed up in a New York studio all this time, recording her second collection.
“It got a little bit too much last time actually - and I was trying to keep a sight on who I was. I’ve had a lonely few months,” she added. (ANI)
