I am one of the few actresses who isn't recognized by the way she looks. I'm recognized by the way I talk.

Actresses are so spoilt - we have someone who does our hair for us on set, so we don't know how to do it ourselves in real life. I know how to wash my hair and brush my teeth, but that's about it!

Not all actresses know how to express their looks, I think. For me, it's an on-again, off-again thing. I'm still struggling.

I found myself sort of becoming a character actor, though I don't know if that would be my natural makeup.

There are people who expect me to look the way I do on-screen, where I have a great director of photography and fantastic lighting. I'm sorry to disappoint people, but I don't look like that all the time - no actress does.

As an actress people always tease me like: if there's anything you can do to make yourself unattractive you will do it.

There are so many glamorous actresses, but you know what? In the real world, nobody looks like that.

As an actor, you don't have much choice about your appearance. It's a good excuse for looking ridiculous.

Well, I'm not a method actress by any stretch of the imagination so the best thing that I can do is be as real as possible and find whatever commonality in that character that I can see myself.

When I see Kate Moss out and about, I think she looks more beautiful than when her hairdresser and make-up artist try and make her look like something else. And I remember when Madonna first asked Versace to book me to shoot a campaign with her, she came to see me wearing hardly any make-up, and she looked incredible.
