I hope that people realise pitting two women against each other is just silly.

You can't ever get sick on a soap: we work really long hours, the show is on TV five nights a week, and it's random and chaotic.

I think it's very important to be mindful of your body and actually listen to it. If I'm craving a certain kind of food, I'll have, but I notice when I'm full. It's kind of like a logical diet. I think when people go on restrictive diets, they put too much stress on themselves, which might make them prone to bingeing.

I really respect versatile actors, so I'd really like to throw myself in the deep end.

I finished Year 12 in Canberra, and I found it was the kind of place where people could go places.

It doesn't matter where you are, you can just put your runners on and go. When I'm travelling, it's a really good way to get to know a city - especially if you've never been there before.

Because of the nature of this industry, it's a bit dangerous to think far ahead.

I was 17, on TV, and kind of thought, 'I'm awesome. Why don't you treat me like an adult?' I was arrogant.

Once, a makeup artist put a little gold highlighter on my Cupid's bow, and it accentuated the lip colour and brought the whole makeup look together. It was just a little thing, but I loved it. I do it myself now, but I have to double check myself. I'm like, 'Is this too much?' You don't want to be leaving home with a big glob of gold on your face.

He was just always Uncle Hugo. He still is. I remember the first time I was watching 'Priscilla: Queen Of The Desert,' and I was like, 'Oh that's what he does!'

I think the office place is always seen as such a professional, sterile environment, so there's something unusually thrilling about taking that well-behaved, polished environment and turning it upside down and shaking it up.

I go for a 20-minute jog every day. I find I am much happier when I exercise. Running helps me debrief and work out my plan for the day.

My mum has a cupboard in her house, and you have to fight an avalanche of tea whenever you open it. I go through eight teas a day because I like having something in my hands when I'm working, and it stops me going for the cookie jar.

I don't like to wear a lot of makeup because my skin is quite sensitive.
