I swore on screen when I got the Olivier for 'Legally Blonde,' I was so surprised. Awards where the public vote mean a lot. I'm a big Twitter fan and like talking to people who support me.

I'm always wearing Spanx, eating ice cream and feeling a bit lonely.

I don't mind being unlikely. I'd rather that than be predictable.

I have angel wings and a halo on my wrist, which I got done on my 30th birthday in memory of my brother.

I'm grateful to be working. The most exciting thing for me is that I never get bored - I've done comedy, drama, musical theatre and now Shakespeare.

I really fancy Eddie Redmayne. I wouldn't mind a few steamy scenes with him.

I'd like to rescue people in trouble, like Superman.
