I didn't like being a model. It feels weird to stand in your knickers in front of people you aren't married to.
A lot of times, it gets weird when some guy is playing your dad. It feels weird to you. It feels like they're forcing sentiment. It's disgusting.
I was recording my audiobook, and it's so weird. You write things, but then to have to say them out loud in front of people feels so different. So when I was recording my audiobook, I was telling an embarrassing story in front of, like, a room full of audio-tech people that I don't know, and I was like 'Oh my God, this is so cringe.'
On stage, I have my three band mates and my guitar in front of me, and mic stand and that's like your shield - it's genuinely amazing what having an instrument does for you, it's like your safety blanket, taking that away is really weird.
If people don't like your act, it feels a little bit more like they don't like you as opposed to they didn't like that character... It's weird because on one hand, we make our living from being permeable and vulnerable, but we also have to have very thick skin.
It's funny: I feel like so many people say, 'Monogamy, it's not natural; we created that for a variety of reasons,' but I think a lot of people love being married and enjoy being married and want to be married to who they're married to.
The horrible thing is, as a model, it wasn't that unusual to be in a weird situation where a photographer or someone feels they have a right to your body.
Being married is like having somebody permanently in your corner. It feels limitless, not limited.
For me any moment in front of a crowd is embarrassing, because I can't stand being in front of people. I'm probably one of the worst public speakers. I try to avoid it, but there are times when it's just too rude not to do it. But there really isn't a moment that's not embarrassing for me if I'm going to stand up in front of a crowd.
I like colourful knickers, but most importantly a great pair of knickers should be taken off with more joy than they were put on.
It's always weird the thought of taking your clothes off in front of 20 people and then to have it projected in front of many more.
I was terrified of being a teacher. To stand in front of a classroom, the responsibility is boggling. Imagine! Standing in front of people!
When it's going well, stand-up is the best thing in the world, but when it's not, it feels like all your toes are being pulled off one by one.
As a vicar's son, I understood performance. It never seemed odd to me that you'd stand up in front of people wearing weird clothes.
As a model, I really stand for not being a model, if that makes sense.
A weird thing about being an actress is that shooting movies doesn't feel like watching movies. It feels like being in a warehouse.
Sometimes it feels weird being an actor surrounded by all these real fighters and you gotta keep your confidence high and do your best to learn it as quickly as possible.
