SHE’S had everyone talking with a series of risqué looks in recent weeks.
But it seems Ellie Goulding is not going to stop flashing at award ceremonies or on stage the flesh any time soon.
The 26-year-old told The Sun on Sunday: “I don’t      feel I have to cover up. I can wear a half-naked                                                                                                       revealing dress now and people aren’t surprised anymore.”

Ellie’s new found confidence has helped her blossom into one of Britain’s biggest exports, selling more than 10 million copies of hit single Lights, Anything Could Happen and Burn — her first UK No. 1.

Her touching ballad “How Long Will I Love You” was this year’s “Children in Need” single and reached No. 3 in the charts.
As a single lady Ellie feels more comfortable than ever to have some fun and if that means showing off a bit of skin so be it.
She said: “I don’t think I have the perfect figure or the perfect face and people know that I know that.

“But I can’t really be shy anymore, everyone in America is naturally confident it’s a whole different world over there. I’ve been on tour with Katy Perry and learnt from the best.”

To stay in shape Ellie follows a gruelling daily fitness regime including a six mile run and the Insanity extreme home fitness DVDs, which she became “obsessed” with while touring with Bruno Mars.

But the singer admits she struggles to cope with some aspects of fame, most notably with her love life becoming big international news.
In recent months the singer has been linked with “One Direction” star Niall Horan and singer/songer writer Ed Sheeran who she was “close” to at one point.

Ellie’s last album Halcyon was written after her break up from Radio 1 DJ Greag James, resulting in a number of heart breaking ballads.
She explains she felt very alone at the time, but feels her new songs have the vibrancy of someone who has come through to the other side and is in a much happier place now.

The singer says she is “so single now” and is loving it. — Daily Mail.
