Norah Jones Says She Almost Quit Music
SINGER Norah Jones has revealed how she almost quit music.
The star says she was prepared to give up on her dreams of becoming a star while struggling in New York as a waitress before she went on to sell more than 10 million copies of her debut album Come Away With Me.
“I’d gained weight — waiting tables, I was eating a lot of corn muffins and I didn’t know they were filled with butter. I felt fat, I felt gross,” she said.
“I called my mom crying and said I wanted to go back to Texas. But my mom said, you know, you’ve only been there six months; at least give it a full year.”
Norah, 30, then spoke about her smooching scene with Jude Law when they shot the 2007 film My Blueberry Nights.
“Having Jude Law licking my face for three days solid was a surreal experience,” she said. “He kissed me about 90 times. There are worse ways to spend your day.”
Norah’s fourth studio album, The Fall, hits stores November 17. That’s today!
Since coming on the scene in 2002, Jones has sold a collective 36 million albums worldwide.
