For me, it's important to keep a level of anonymity.

I think I have a degree of confidence, but I also have terrible insecurity, like anybody does.

I've been out to LA a couple of times but, over there, the Grenouille in me always comes to the surface. I feel completely terrified, totally flummoxed, like I don't understand what the hell is going on. I've no desire at all to go back there.

It's fun to pretend you're good at something you know you wouldn't be good at in real life.

One of the things I find very difficult about theatre is the repetition - that something can slide away from your original intentions.

I don't think I am especially interested in celebrities, but I love talking about what is going on with people and why they do what they do.

I don’t think that actors are necessarily any more uncomfortable in their skin than anyone else. I suppose I feel more comfortable in my skin now, but you’re always playing a character, aren’t you? You tell different versions of yourself to different people and vice versa. Here, or in the photo shoot or wherever, it’s a representation of you. It’s not you-you. That’s how you get through it.
