I think a lot of people have a vision of L.A. in which TV executives and movie directors plan their latest productions by the swimming pool.
I don't like myself. I'm not vain at all. I hate looking at myself - I always think I look ugly. Honest.
When people speak their own language you get a much better sense of who they are.
My parents wanted me to work in a bank or as an accountant.
When people feel threatened by you, they find something that is belittling.
I'm not romantic at all. I'm a moaner. I should be on Grumpy Old Men. I'm terrible.
It's horrible how money and fame can make you acceptable while, if you're not famous or rich, you're not acceptable.
I like to read about subjects unrelated to my work, especially history.
I eat well, but I don't believe in diets.
I look after myself. I train and go to the gym.
When I was 10, I knew there was something different about me. Everyone was football-mad, but I just wanted to watch musicals and see art.
If I had a place with a studio where I could paint I'd be happy.
I've been in love with the cinema since childhood and it's a fantasy of mine to appear in a Hollywood movie.
I'm a sucker for turquoise sea, white beaches and palm trees. I've been to the tropics every year since I could afford it. It's the perfect place to unwind. I can chill out, read, do a bit of yoga.
