'I always been a perfectionist, especially when preparing for live shows. As I've got older I've learned what we consider the imperfections are actually what make us unique and what makes a one-of-a-kind live performance!'

In addition to taking the pop music scene by storm in the late 80s and early 90s – and becoming the youngest-ever female to write, produce and perform a No. 1 single with Foolish Beat – Debbie has also enjoyed a career as an actress on the Broadway musical stage.

'Always trust your instincts,' the Shake Your Love songstress shared as her second piece of advice.

'Follow them in music, in love and in health. Nobody knows what's best for you better than you!'

And lastly, Debbie mentioned the importance of truthfulness in life.

'Don't cheat at Pictionary,' she joked. 'You know you're a bad liar and will end up confessing and blowing it for the whole team!'
