I've got a swimming pool and I pretend to be like a mermaid, like in the middle of the night. It kind of de-stresses me.

I think girls who looked like me or were from the poorer area where I'm from in Australia, like you don't think "Oh, I'm going to be a movie star." You just didn't think that would happen to girls like me where I'm from.

I think I appear very innocent and soft, but I'm actually very dark and edgy. It's a weird dichotomy.

As a kid, I never thought I'd be an actress. Never, ever, ever, no way. I was really shy - bordering on social disorder shy - and I was really academic.

I'd love to do a court-room drama. I loved 'Ally McBeal.' That was one of the main reasons I went to law school.

I do notice that when I come in to meet casting people, they love that I'm Australian. Maybe it's our good work ethic.

Usually when I ask people to reach into my velvety pouch it means something different.
