I was very attached to my family when my father died. I was 19. I was about to go live with my father right when he died, so it was very intense.

I have ideas of subjects and atmospheres that I love. I either want to go in a tougher, stronger direction or do the opposite: simple ballads.

It's difficult for me to write in English as it's not my first language, but French is even worse because of my father's influence and because the comparisons that I - not even other people - would make.

I wish I could just accept that I'm not that good and not be shy about the fact that I'm not that professional.

You don't accept your weaknesses the same way that you love the weaknesses of another artist, because when they make mistakes they don't look like weaknesses.

I think, being an actress, you know that you're getting old. I'm 44. I mean, an agent said when I turned 40, "It won't get better."

In France I'm very private, I don't like talking about my life, and I imagined that people would think that I'm now an open book.
