Marina Diamandis Explains Self-Doubt Worries


British singer Marina Diamandis has opened up about the feelings of self-doubt she experienced while promoting her debut album, insisting she wanted to "divorce myself".

The Marina and the Diamonds frontwoman released her first record, The Family Jewels, last year (10), but fans were left concerned for the star after she uploaded a worrying post to her blog.

She wrote, "This industry = one, long, fake cringe fest, I feel like diving into a k-hole of Cheetos and beer. I feel like an impostor/try-hard & awkwardly out of place in the world of pop... I wish I was back in my room in 2007 making CDs in peace, not having people say 'Oh you're not very successful'."

Diamandis has now addressed her outburst, telling Britain's Independent newspaper, "I just wanted to divorce myself. I was so tired. I'm either on top of the world or I just think everything has gone down the tubes.

"It's so easy to pick on the bad things because you're so nervous about it working out - you want it so badly."
