FKA Twigs has discussed her overwhelming shyness in the public eye, and how that has affected her career so far.
Speaking to The Metro at The Mercury Music Prize awards ceremony last night (29 September), the acclaimed songstress confessed "I’m quite a shy person. I live in a constant state of shyness."
The 'Two Weeks' singer then continued to explain how it has affected her in the past, particularly when it came to potentially meeting her XL Records label-mate Adele.
"‘I haven’t met Adele but I once saw her at the XL Christmas party. I didn’t say hi, but next time we might have a talk" she reportedly told the paper.
Watch Gigwise's interview with FKA Twigs from last month below:
Twigs was bookies' favourite to win the prestigious Mercury Music Prize last night, however it was outsiders Young Fathers who pipped her to the post for their acclaimed album Dead.
