garden paris barbecue
I was born in a suburb of Paris, and I grew up there until I was 16, so there were always a lot of barbecues, a garden, friends.
patience inspiration want
My mum told me to have patience. It's about realising that when things aren't going the way you want them to, or you don't have inspiration, it will come.
energy youth
Youth is a question of energy.
chic
It amuses me when I'm described as 'chic.'
hard-work actors want
[When you are an actor] it's not a burden to go to work whether it's hard work, whether it's super early work, whatever. So, I go there because I want to be there. I want to do this. That helps a lot.
childhood fantastic repeats
How many times do I have to repeat this: my childhood was fantastic.
good-lyric terrible my-own
I'd rather sing a good lyric written by someone else than one of my own that is terrible.
rain fall mean
'Singin' in the Rain' was the one for me. Yeah. I mean, Gene Kelly could just sway and never fall. He'd just sway and sway as he danced.
atheism no-fear bad-things
No fear... we are never sure of anything... fear never prevents [bad things] from happening.
space lucky enough
Not everyone is lucky enough to be given space and trust.
summer winter years
In the winter I separate, in the summer I marry. It's been 15 years since I've been getting married every year.
cities house buying
You know, when I eat three peas, I'm pregnant. When I visit a city, I'm buying a house.
unique path realizing
I realize how unique my path has been. And I'm thankful for that.
children years only-child
I was an only child until I was 11 years old, which is when my sister was born. So for 11 years, it was just me.
