I have a very ostrich mentality. I feel like I have my head in the sand so no one can see me.

Drama is my sweet spot, but the thing about being an actor is that you want to do a variety of things. I definitely love fantasy and would want to be in a fantasy project.

I can speak of actors that I love. I love Cate Blanchett, Viola Davis, her tenacity. I love Charlize Theron. She's so surprising and so exhilarating, the kinds of projects she takes on. Marion Cotillard as well.

You have to allow for the impossible to be possible.

Being called gorgeous is not a bad thing! But at the same time, I don’t want to thrive on people’s opinions of me.

What is fundamentally beautiful is compassion: for yourself and for those around you.

I come from a loving, supportive family, and my mother taught me that there are more valuable ways to achieve beauty than just through your external features. She was focused on compassion and respect, and those are the things that ended up translating to me as beauty. Beautiful people have many advantages, but so do friendly people.... I think beauty is an expression of love.
