Singer and actress Cynthia Erivo is already a star of stage and screen, a winner of an Emmy, a Tony and a Grammy, and an Oscar nominee. Now, she is set to release her debut album, Ch 1 Vs 1, and tells Sky News this is just the beginning.

Titled Ch 1 Vs 1, it's clear that Erivo sees this as just the beginning of her story."My life isn't over yet," she says."There's lots to come, there's lots to learn, there's lots to write. This felt like a new beginning for me when it came to music so I wanted to mark that."

The star says when it comes to writing songs, there is nothing wrong with letting your emotions show."I'm not afraid to be as truthful as I can be, you know. It doesn't scare me. I guess I kind of am thrilled by being able to be vulnerable in front of people. I think the more I can do it, hopefully other people will be encouraged to be just as vulnerable."

"I wanted to pay homage to Black love, but often we see Black love - and most love - heterosexually," she says."I wanted to see something that felt normal, that showed two women in a relationship… and it wasn't voyeuristic and it wasn't fetishistic. It was just a normal relationship going through the ups and downs that relationships go through.The star, pictured performing at the Ravinia Festival in Chicago in July, says she is performing live is her 'lifeblood'.

Then there is the plan requiring people to prove double vaccination status when entering nightclubs and other"crowded venues" from the end of September - bizarrely announced just as restrictions were lifted in July - which has been condemned as an"absolute shambles" by industry figures.
