The media loves negative spin.

I would love to do a sweeping romantic period drama, like Jane Eyre. That would be my dream. It's always been my dream, as far as acting.

I have the insecurities of any actress, I suppose of any woman. Even the most beautiful ones feel unhappy. Look at Bardot: she was suicidal. But I like to play with the camera. I like to ham it up.

It's a great thing, for someone to feel that they can draw inspiration from you.

I refrain from lots of things I love, like cheese and carbs. I eat plenty of greens every day, my favorite being watercress.

I always feel I could be like Toni Collette, going between big studio things and indie films. That would be feasible.

When I was a teenager, I was really into hair; I dyed it different colours and had loads of haircuts. I shaved my head when I was 17 - it was pretty radical!
