You’ve got to think about your diet, that’s why I don’t drink. I take medication and sometimes you take it for so many years and then it doesn’t work and you’ve got to find a new one – and that period is a really crazy period.'

Rose came out as a lesbian when she was 12 and has since said she was convinced she would end up with Mariah Carey. 'I was pretty certain we were going to end up together,' she said.
