I first wanted to be a psychiatrist. I decided against that in medical school when I discovered that psychiatrists didn't, in reality, do what they did on TV.
For any role, I pretty much always go to the script, first and foremost.
I did an A Level in Theatre Studies and had a really inspirational teacher, and then I just went on to university.
My first acting experience was a non-speaking role as a robot. My costume was a cardboard box covered in tinfoil, but I was so shy I refused to go on stage.
After filming, I cant wait to shake off all that 50s primness. Ill go out to a gig and dance ridiculously. I love to lose myself in music. Just letting go - its dead important.
I have a lot of Breton striped top and silk shirts that always feel good. I also like things with a masculine edge and dislike anything too girly.
I always knew that the only thing I wanted to do was act, but it took me a long time to say it out loud to anyone, let alone myself. I am surprised by how dogged I have been in wanting to make a living as a respected actress.
I think I cry when I'm angry. I let it go that way.
I always worry when someone's a good golfer. It's like you shouldn't have time to be good at anything. You should just be a politician and you shouldn't have time to practice golf.
By the time I actually recorded Bitter Tears I carried a heavy load of sadness and outrage; I felt every word of those songs. . . I expected there to be trouble with that album, and there was. . . . when it was released, many radio stations wouldn't play it. . . . The very idea of unconventional or even original ideas ending up on "country" radio in the late 1990s is absurd.
My name is Katniss Everdeen. My home is District Twelve. Peeta was taken prisoner. He is thought to be dead. Most likely is dead. It would probably be best if he were dead. . . - Katniss EverdeenS
