Quotes When people hear that I don't smoke, don't drink and am a vegan, they think that I am a miserable cow. But I'm not. I don't eat meat as a moral choice, and I don't eat dairy products because they are very mucus-forming, and that is bad for your voice. I work out because I am asthmatic and being a singer and having asthma is not the best combination. "Not so much loud as Proud; M People singer Heather Small may have a powerful voice, but she has an enemy which won't go away - stage fright," in the Scottish Daily Record (15 July 2000). People used to think my dedication to my diet was crazy, but now they realise that what you put in your body makes a difference. I would strongly recommend to anyone suffering with allergies to think about adjusting their diet, as I would never have had a singing career if I hadn’t. "Singer Heather Small reveals how her terrible allergies almost ruined her pop career," in the Mirror (20 June 2016).
