I'm very grateful for the way things have panned out. If I hadn't had a struggle at the start, I wouldn't be able to appreciate every single day in this job. Whether you love or hate a job, you can't waste the chance to do something with it.

When you're working with a big star, you always wonder what it's going to be like. Hugh Jackman puts you at ease within 10 minutes. He has such a wonderful energy and is so generous when you're doing a scene. He's just so funny and friendly and playful - he instantly becomes your friend.

I've learnt that you never know what is around the corner, so it's best to enjoy the ride.

I loved all the other movies, and I loved all the other movie stars, but I was very aware of the fact that I didn't look like Marilyn Monroe - although I still wanted to be Marilyn Monroe. Then Josephine Baker popped up, and she wasn't the maid - she was the star of the show. To me, it was mind-blowing.

I can't believe I've met the royal family. It's, like, one of those things you never expect to do in your life.

My happiest moments are when I'm with my family and when I go to the park at school with my friends.

South Park' movie was R. There's a place that people are not occupying, thinking that animated has to be family always, and I don't think that's true.

You know, I'm gay and I grew up being aware of that at a very early age, in a fairly repressed family.
