I've been acting for a long time - I started when I was 12.
Acting has influenced my approach to beauty in both practical and fun ways as well as influencing my style. I do like to be more adventurous - for some reason, I feel safer in that.
It was strange, especially because all of the projects I did when I was young, I was always the youngest on set or the only child, so I spent my formative years hanging out with 24-year-olds when I was 13.
Oh, my God, I would be the most uncool band member, ever.
I am so honoured to be supporting the Elton John AIDS Foundation and their mission making London and our global cities AIDS-free.
Being part of the Queen story and knowing what Freddie Mercury went through before he died of AIDS has really shown me how far we've come in fighting this disease.
I was born in New York and moved to London with my family when I was five. I did have an American accent for a couple of months, and then it went a way.
An all-girls school, when you have 800 girls from the age of 11 to 18, you would think, should be a prime opportunity to really inject a sense of confidence and power. And instead, we were very much taught in relation to men, in terms of what the brother school would think of us.
We were always told not to wear skirts that were too short, because what will the male teachers think of you? Or, when we started sharing classes with boys in sixth form, what will they think of you if you are wearing a miniskirt to lessons?
There were years in between of going to auditions pretty much every day and getting nothing.
Comedy kind of terrifies me. I feel pretty intimidated.
My dream would be to be like Tina Weymouth from Talking Heads. Her style and everything about her, she's just the coolest human being.
Paul McCartney has always been the love of my life.
My skin gets really dry and stressed from all the traveling I do, so I've had to find reliable products to help that.
I realized on my first day on set of 'Miss Potter' that there wasn't going to be anything else that could make me as happy or feel as fulfilled as acting does.
It was strange doing that transition from teenager to more adult roles, but I think it just makes it more exciting.
I've been every hair color under the sun for different projects.
I find that I'm quite experimental. I'm drawn to the brighter and weirder things.
All of our family holidays were always work trips for my parents, so my sister and I would sit somewhere or find a kids' club while my parents would be interviewing people.
I want to be an actress when I grow up. Actually, I don't want to wait until I'm grown up. I want to be a child actress. I want to be an actress before I'm 13.
