After being given the go-ahead by record company executives, Florence + the Machine singer Florence Welch is planning a year-long break.
She told Style Magazine: “There's a big 'take a year off' plan. The record company have put no pressure on for the next album. They've said I can have as long as I want.''
She also told the magazine that she plans to spend her time hanging around East London, where she likes to play a game called Hipster Safari.
Welch said: ''Nobody notices me in London. I think it's because I don't feel very starry when I go out. People expect me to be louder and wearing a huge bat-winged jumpsuit or something, but I'm quite quiet really.
''I like playing Hipster Safari. It's like people watching, people watching, but in East London. I like walking around, looking at everyone's clothes. It's like, 'Yep, I used to go to college with them. Yep there's that fashion blogger wearing a snazzy outfit'.
''You have a list and tick the East London clichés off as you go.''
