I think for any actor to say they don't like attention is ridiculous. Of course we love attention. But getting attention is different than pretending the attention means something.

As an actor you're used to being the focus of attention.

I really love to act; I love everything about it. I've never had this addiction to being known. I mean, sure, if you go into acting, there's part of you that is saying, 'I want attention' but I was brought up to work to deserve attention, and it is the work, not the trappings that are important.

There's no such thing as unwanted attention for an actor.

I love attention. Maybe my desire for attention is a little too out of control, but I'm very honest.

I'm terribly attention-seeking. It's very different once you get all this attention, though. Because then you want to control it. And you can't exactly.

I love my work, but I don't like being in the spotlight. I was never going to be an actor, that's for sure.

It's definitely nerve-racking to be the center of attention. I'm not the kind of an actor that just craves attention 24-7 - but it's part of the deal. You're the leader on the set.

I don't like to bring attention to myself. I don't like to make a scene.
