Ellie Goulding's tour temper
Posted on 24 Jun 2010 07:00 to category : Music News
Ellie Goulding admits she can become argumentative when on tour.
The 'Starry Eyed' singer claims to have a brilliant relationship with her manager but believes being on the road makes her impatient.
She said: "Me and my manager argue but he's like my best friend. It could be about anything. On tour everything becomes a lot more magnified and when you have to perform every night, wanting the particular bed you like on the bus becomes important. That's the last thing I kicked off about. All the bands claimed their beds before I got there.
The 23-year-old star also loves having creative control over her career because her record label - Polydor- allow her to be completely hands on.
She explained in an interview with Stylist magazine: "My label is absolutely brilliant - they've been great. Nothing has ever been forced [on me] and nothing's ever been done that I haven't wanted. My manager and I make a good team and if I'm not comfortable with something I just say."
The singer also admits to losing her mind when she writes.
She added: "I have to use my head when I write and I go a little insane."
