Sophie Ellis-Bextor is glad she was a "freaky" teenager. The "Murder on the Dancefloor" singer didn't mind being ignored by boys when she was younger because it taught her not to rely on her looks.

Sophie Ellis Bextor was so hated at school that children formed an "Against Sophie" club. The 30-year-old singer - whose mother Janet Ellis presented U.K. children's TV show "Blue Peter" - admits she used to brag about her mom's career, but soon stopped when she realized how unpopular she was.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor wouldn't date an unsuccessful man. The "Murder on the Dancefloor" singer, who is married to The Feeling star Richard Jones, insists she couldn't be happy with someone who didn't have their own career.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor has given birth to a baby boy nine weeks early. The "Groovejet" singer - who was not due to have the tot until April - gave birth to her 2lb 2oz son after being struck down with the potentially life-threatening pregnancy illness pre-eclampsia.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor is pregnant. The "Murder on the Dancefloor" singer has announced she and her husband, The Feeling bassist Richard Jones, will welcome their second child into the world in April.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor is desperate for more children.
