Mark Ronson: I'm a fraud

Star producer lacks confidence in his musical ability

Mark Ronson and Daisy Lowe celebrate his win

Mark Ronson is dating model Daisy Lowe

Mark Ronson has revealed that he fears being exposed as talentless.

Despite a string of hit collaborations with artists including Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen, the producer still lacks confidence in his ability.

‘Before every new job I’m racked with insecurity [thinking]: “OK, this’ll be the one that exposes me as a fraud and a talentless f***,”’ he says.

Mark, 32, is currently dating Daisy Lowe. They were first spotted out together in May – just 3 months after he split from his girlfriend of 3 years Cosi Theodoli-Braschi.

He says the 19-year-old model keeps him grounded. ‘I prefer being either by myself or with just one person,’ he tells The Times Magazine.

‘I’m with someone who I like a lot, and that’s good because it’s an anchor.’

The producer's DJ sister Samantha Ronson, 30, is currently linked with actress Lindsay Lohan, 22.
