My favourite compliment now is that people are talking about my acting, my craft - not my torso.
No one should ever suffer in silence. Bullies thrive in silence.
With 'Strictly,' I am mentally and physically knackered: everything aches. I knew it would be hard, but I never thought it would be this tough.
I have an acting coach, a dialect coach, and just a great team around me.
We try and give as much diversity to our show as possible. That's something that's very strong in our show: there are so many strong female leads in 'The 100.'
I've never liked my smile, you see. I should have had braces as a kid, but I was too proud and too vain. And I didn't want to be bullied at school.
When you're living in L.A., you really do have to raise your game - you have to be the best 'you' possible.
I've never used chat-up lines; I don't have the gift of the gab.
As in all TV shows, and especially a show called 'Mistresses,' all is not going to be as it seems.
Sometimes, when you've got a couple of females on the cast, you'll have a diva, or you'll have arguments. I've been on shows where girls haven't quite got on.
Keep watching 'The 100.' It's an incredible show, and that's my family.
My friends said I was crazy, but L.A. is the hub of the industry. It's the epicenter of the business. If I wanted to get above the plateau that I had reached in the U.K., I had to make that move.
