Pixie Lott pretends to be a student so she can get half-price cinema tickets.

The 'Boys and Girls' singer - whose first two singles topped the British charts - has revealed she lies to staff at her local cinema so she can save money just like her friends, but admits it doesn't always go according to plan.

She said: "When I went to see 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' I wanted to get in half-price like my friends, so I pretended to be a student, but they knew who I was! I keep getting recognised now. even when I went out for dinner with my parents a few nights ago, I was sat there in my comfy clothes and boots and everybody kept coming up to me all the time! I don't mind it though."

The 19-year-old star quickly rose to fame after releasing her debut LP 'Turn It Up' last September. Although she now has a glamorous pop star lifestyle, Pixie has admitted she used to apply for singing jobs in her local newspaper in a bid to become a "Pop Diva" - and often had to lie about her age.
