Except, says Dionne, the ed hardy shirtstabloid reports that she was bullied are untrue. So are those about her drinking. “Come on, really?” she scoffs. “Do you think I’m gonna be drinking at 13?” They’re lies, she insists. “I put it over my head. That was yesterday’s news. Tomorrow’s gonna be tomorrow’s news.” Barely one month into her life in the public eye, Dionne Bromfield is a gossip column fixture, and is cynical about the media. Welcome to the fame game.
I had first met Dionne Bromfield three weeks previously, in an office at her record company HQ in Kensington, West London. She was cool, calm and dressed-up in her favourite clothes: skinny jeans and boots. She wore a salmon pink Juicy Couture raincoat, bought for her as a birthday present by her godmother. Her mother, Julie, an old friend of Winehouse, was next door. She isn’t present at Dionne’s interviews. “I can hold my own, I’m not stupid, I’m not gonna say something I’m not meant to say,” Dionne insists. And indeed, she boasts a practised and sensible line in rebuttal and fudge, particularly when it comes to her godmother (“Well, I’m not gonna ed hardy bootsspeak for Amy . . .”). Born in East London and raised in South London — her mother is English, her dad Jamaican — Dionne told me that, from the age of 10, people had been commenting on her voice. “I thought I sounded like a strangled dog or something. But then eventually I was like, ‘If people are telling me I’m good something must be there’. I mean, I still don’t rate myself. But people must think I’m good to get a record deal.”
