I've been a ballerina since I was two, but I've always wanted to be an actress.

Sometimes I am kind of the opposite of my character. But that's the thing about acting, you get to play people who are not like you at all.

Courtney Love is really cool and funny. I would like to meet Julia Roberts and Cameron Diaz. I think I could play their daughters.

I always talk about my characters like they're real people.

You have to be totally one hundred per cent committed to act. I do value everyone else's advice, but ultimately I have to listen to myself.

Dear God, I do not ask for health or wealth. People ask you so often that you can't have any left. Give me, God, what else you have. Give me what no-one else asks for. Amen.

It's something that's always been there for me, that I have huge blue eyes - it's been something that people have always talked about.
