When you're hiding behind a character all the time, as soon as you have to be yourself, you feel kind of terrified.

My brother is the lead singer of The Torn, and my parents are in a country duo.

Not having gone to drama school, I always feel like a bit of a fraud, but so far it looks as though I've not been found out.

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.

Appearing in 'Legally Blonde' has helped me find my inner girl, although at the beginning the director was constantly telling me off for sitting like a boy, with my legs apart, while wearing a cocktail dress and heels!

I'm just some commoner trying to work in acting.

Every girl wants to play Bridget Jones.
