Believe in yourself and go for it

Being an actress, I find myself people-watching and I can be quite shy.

I just love music generally. If you come to my house I always have music playing.

I think our fears find us and force us to confront them over and over again.

My friends are all really nice about my fame, they're just curious really, they ask lots of questions.

I paint and I draw and I write and I do other things too, and recently some people at school were asking if I'd ever publish any of my work. But I almost feel like I would have to publish it under another name because there's a definition of me out there that feels kind of stuck in the moment when it was formed.

As a younger woman, that pressure got me down, but I've made my peace with it. With airbrushing and digital manipulation, fashion can project an unobtainable image that's dangerously unhealthy. I'm excited about the ageing process. I'm more interested in women who aren't perfect. They're more compelling.
