My main aim has always been to do good quality films with roles that have some substance. With Power and Beauty there were loads of things that I liked about the movie, which made me opt for it.

When you're doing some things that are damaging you, you don't really realise it at the time.

I started off as a model and struggled for some time until I got a break as an actress. I was too stubborn to let go and was sure I was in the right place at the right time. I just fought and I think that's how I am where I am today.

Well, I have a couple of projects in the pipeline, but I'm taking things slow for now and being choosy about the roles I take up. One thing I can assure you of is that you are going to see a lot of me!

Where is this Hollywood scene, where is it? I'd like to find it one day... If I want to go out and have a good time, I go to New York.

Well, thank you. I do exercise in fact I am an exercise freak. Can't do without my regular work out. I'm not letting you in on any more of my secrets!

I never forget my old days and I never fly too high I have my feet fixed firmly on the ground!
