I've always had philosophy, which has been really helpful for me, getting into the business. I didn't have any connections. I didn't know anyone. It was just about my work.

It's very rare that I get stopped or get asked for an autograph or anything - none of which I mind - but people don't really care that much.

I think part of me would love to play a drag queen, just because it would be an excuse to wear loads of eye makeup.

If I was left to my own devices, you would see about ten T-shirts in rotation with maybe a few nice pairs of jeans - but I also like to look good. I like feeling really well put together, I just don't have the aptitude and the knowledge to do that.

That's what fame does to you. You acquire another self.

I've been working since I was 9, and I've never known a life without a film set.

I just have this fear that I'll get on stage and there'll be that brief moment of adrenalin and I'll forget my line.
