Personal Quotes
Up until I was 12 my sisters utilized to dress me up as a girl and introduce me as 'Claudia'! Twelve was a turning point as I moved to a mixed school and then I became cool and discovered hair gel.
It's strange, somebody asked for my autograph the other day. Since I finished school and I'm not really performing anything at the moment, I was just kind of aimlessly wandering around London and these two guys who were about 30 came up and asked for my autograph. I was really really proud at the time, and they wanted to take photos and stuff. And then they had been sort of wandering around and I was type of wandering around and I bumped into them about three times, and each and every single time their respect for me kept growing and growing and growing.
They [Barnes Theatre Club] had been a extremely great group, and for some reason when I finished the backstage factor, I just decided to that I ought to attempt to act. So I auditioned for Guys and Dolls and got a bit tiny part as some Cuban dancer or something and then inside the next play I got the lead component, and then I got my agent. So I owe every thing to that little club.
I aspire to be Jack Nicholson. I really like his each and every single mannerism. I employed to try and be him in virtually every thing I did, I do not know why. I watched 1 Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975) when I was about 13, and I dressed like him. I tried to do his accent. I did everything like him. I believe it kind of stuck with me.
The day prior to [the Harry Potter London premiere] I was just sitting in Leicester Square, happily being ignored by everybody. Then suddenly strangers are screaming your name. Wonderful.
I went to one of these signing conventions. [in '06] It was one of the most intriguing experiences I've had. It was so strange that individuals would pay for autographs. You maintain thinking you need to do a bit dance for them as well or something.
I have been playing the piano for my whole life - since I was three or four. And also the guitar - I used to play classical guitar from when I was about five to 12 years of age. Then I didn't play guitar for like years. About four or five years ago, I got out the guitar again and just started playing blues and stuff. I'm not extremely excellent at the guitar, but I am all proper. I'm in a band in London as well.
My favorite teacher was almost certainly my English teacher due to the fact she got me into writing instead of just answering the question. I used to hand in homework with 20 pages of nonsense and she'd still mark it. She was a truly incredible teacher.
I didn't need to get stuck in fairly, public school roles, or I knew I'd wind up as some sort of caricature. Playing Dali has been a complete turning point for me. It's the first part I've had that has required really serious thought. I became entirely obsessed with Dali throughout the filming, and I read every single biography I could get a hold of. He was probably the most bizarre, complicated man, but within the end I felt I could relate to him. He was essentially incredibly shy.
I wasn't at all focused on school, and I didn't accomplish much. But I've got a sense of urgency now. I feel I can't let any much more time waste away.
Twilight (2008/I) is a metaphor for the virtues of chastity, but it is had the opposite effect. I get letters that say "I'm going to kill myself should you do not watch High School Musical 2 (2007) (TV) with me". It's just a little nuts.
Every thing has grow to be a lot more intense for six months, considering that 'Twilight' was released. It's difficult to manage what's happening to me. I don't have the essential hindsight, even if only to uncover a way out to this situation. But this celebrity thing, you can't fight it, it is useless, you can't avoid it. When it's not some thing you desired throughout your whole life, or something you don't aspire to, you are no cost not to care about it. I didn't sign for Disney. There's not a stipulation which forces me to smile to the paparazzi.
Sometimes I think, 'to hell with acting,' and then I recognize I could possibly be working at a shoe shop. Acting is much cooler.
Please don't give me all my luck now. Make it all stretch. I do not mind waiting. Make it stretch for 70 years.
When I was 14, I fronted a rap trio. Pretty hard-core for three private school children from suburban London. And my mum's, like, cramping our style, popping her head in to ask, 'You boys want a sandwich?'
My old agent utilised to promote me as the male Keira Knightley. (Laughs) I thought: 'Well, what does that say about me exactly?' Do I pout a whole lot or some thing?
I went to one of these signing conventions in '06. It was one of the most intriguing experiences I've had. It was so strange that individuals would pay for autographs. You maintain thinking you should do a bit dance for them as well or something.
