In Franc, you're with the crew, and you have lunch with them. It's more like a family.
There was a scene where we were making love, but in a very trashy way, and it was supposed to be funny but I didn't feel it was funny.
Letting go of things and not being afraid of being ridiculous or over the top-I think that's the main thing for me to work on.
You think that being a girl is degrading, but secretly, you'd love to know what it's like, wouldn't you?
I like to play roles different from myself so I can hide behind them.
It's more than a job. It's very personal, so when you're hurt, you're really hurt inside.
I don't have a career plan. I've never done that. Things happen accidentally and I've been lucky.
I thought people would ask me really personal questions because I've shown more of myself, but it's a comedy, and people understand that it's a game we play.

Letting go of things and not being afraid of being ridiculous or over the top - I think that's the main thing for me to work on.
I hope one day I will be able to be completely myself. Maybe I'll be wilder.
I used to hate being recognised.
I wasn't getting the responses I hoped for. You can't protect yourself from other judgments.
At the beginning it wasn't to do with the work, it was more the experience.
