My father was champion of North Africa and he beat the European champ. He was very good, a professional for 12 years. We're from a big family of boxers. My father has seven brothers.

I'm not a movie star like other actors in the way that I need to walk with a bodyguard.

Love is based on imagination.

I wanted to become a champ - I was surrounded by champs in my family and in my neighborhood - and because of this stupid accident, I lost my opportunity.

I don't feel restricted by the language: I feel more free.

I don't want to dig in the truth all of the time. Let me dream.

I was born and raised in a suburb of Paris by a working-class family.
