I always get offered the pretty, popular girl roles, but I want to do something dark, really challenge myself and get out of my comfort level.
Whenever people are excited about 'My Girl', I always think if I met the kids from 'The Neverending Story.' I would probably be the same way.
I constantly felt (as I suppose many an ambitious girl has felt) a thumping from within unanswered by any beckoning from without.
I was always into punk, ever since I was 13, but I was into other stuff, too - like, well, the Spice Girls. I really liked Scary Spice.
You come on as a guest. You don't get the girl anymore. But that is our lives. You start off as the boyfriend, then you are the lover, then you are the husband, then you are the father, and then you are the grandfather.
I did a little film called 'Nina,' a small role. I played a French girl who was a nurse to Nina Simone. Zoe Saldana plays Nina.
I just got really into this one girl on Instagram and had her paint little pineapples on my nails during shooting.
I like everything. Boyish girls, girlish boys, the heavy and the skinny. Which is a problem when I'm walking down the street.
I sang a lot as a little girl and entered competitions. I loved singing in choirs, but it was as I got older that I really found my voice.
Everybody perceives me because of my career that I'm a movie star, or I'm this model, but I'm still the same person I was when I was a little girl.
So I wanted to explore all points of view of that, not just the girl's but his point of view as well. Only by directing it could I explore all the points of view.
I was one of five very clever kids, the other kids were cleverer than I was and still are and are very achieving. The girls were always first at everything and I was always 101st!
I grew up in London. My parents and I lived in West Norwood, then we moved to Norbury, and I went to the Brit School. I'm a South London girl at heart.
If a girl is stupid enough to love you after you broke her heart, I guarantee you, she is the one.
I just don't want to cozy up to the guy whose girl I have every intention of stealing.
I never wanted to play a character that hated herself. I wanted people to know that those aren't the only roles for people like me, normal girls.
they say that girls are the ones who want fairy tail endings, but then again, who are the authors of fairy tales? mostly men...
I think I would be making a mistake to actively try and just do everything completely different from 'Gilmore Girls.'
She looked at the girl in the chair and she saw what youth was. It was oblivious, with things in its ears.
I doubt whether any girl would be satisfied with her lover's mind if she knew the whole of it.
I enjoyed entertaining people since I was a little girl. There was nothing better than making people laugh. That, and the need to express myself in a safe environment.
