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.

Even when I'm playing someone named 'Fat Amy.' I'm all about confidence and attitude.

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.

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.

My family keeps me pretty grounded. Like if I try anything diva, they're like, 'Oh shut up. Go and do the dishwasher.'

When I was just a girl in Sydney, no one thought, 'Oh, she's going to be a movie star.' No one. I had to get by with actual skill and talent.

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.
