I don't like myself. I'm not vain at all. I hate looking at myself - I always think I look ugly. Honest.

When I was 10, I knew there was something different about me. Everyone was football-mad, but I just wanted to watch musicals and see art.

I think school is so important. I was good student. A rebel, but I did well in my studies. I don't close myself to anything. I liked reading and I still love learning. I loved history and German.

I eat well, but I don't believe in diets.
