“I feel that nudity can sometimes be quite distracting and take something away from a film because we're not used to seeing it.”
“I have that wonderful release of growing up and thinking, 'I can do whatever I want. I can prioritise for myself.'”
“The worst fear you can have coming from a modelling background is that you're going to be a model-turned- actress - a mattress, that's what I call them, ironically, I hope.”
“And oddly, when I was a kid I used to look at junkyards and I wanted to have one of my own.”
“I think 'ex-model,' especially in the UK, smacks of being shallow and stupid and having no soul.”
“After graduating from University, I began directing in theatre too, and I've been directing, writing and acting ever since, which has allowed me to continue this traveler lifestyle.”
“I was acting before I was modelling, when I was very young, doing the Edinburgh Festival and that sort of stuff.”
“I've always had far too much emotion to be Scottish.”
“Because the job is still really exciting, and I still get nervous on the first day of shooting. But all the nonsense that surrounds it - that can be on your own terms.”
