When you're acting, you're escaping and hiding behind something. It's cliched to say, but there's a safety there.

Acting is an aesthetic career, which is annoying.

I love dressing up for events; to me it's almost like wearing a costume for the evening.

The truth is, I'm not body confident.

I think if you have a good night's sleep, you can take on the world.

But, as an actress, you don't want to run into these scenes, willy-nilly. The couple that I did do were important for the character and essential to the plot, to show what was actually going on between each character. It is great to be able to have that, and to be able to say certain things and have certain passions.

I don't think I've ever done a character like this before, so I couldn't really draw from previous roles. I've been known for doing a lot of comedies in England, so I don't think that would have worked. I completely went from scratch, with this one, and used the research and what was in the script, and spoke to Chris. It's all from in my mind ,rather than drawing from previous experiences or roles.
