The You Had Me hitmaker has been slammed for her quirky dress sense and= received a barrage of harsh comments when she affected a fake American a= ccent onstage at the 2007 Brit Awards.
But the singer can’t understand why she garners such negative attention= from her fellow Brits.
She tells the Mail on Sunday’s Live magazine, "A lot of people in this = country hate me. I seem to annoy people. I’m always on the worst-dressed = lists and I just seem to get people very angry.
"When I went out on stage at the Brits two years ago, there was an outc= ry because people thought I was talking in an American accent. I’m the so= rt of person who deals with conflict head-on, but my record company just = cancelled all interviews and TV appearances because of the fuss. I still = don’t get what it’s all about."
