Growing up and going out to bars in Australia - people do random things; cheesy pick-up lines... you got to laugh. It's sweet. Some people come up with cracker lines, and you really can't be mean to them.

A lot of the time, in the past, I have played the pretty blonde in a lot of roles.

I think the Australian men and American men are quite different. I feel like Australian men might be a little bit more laid back and a little bit cool whereas American guys are sort of 'boom, boom, boom.'

I'd never heard of a hall pass until I came to America. It sounds like something at school.

I have actually been very blessed in my career.

My translation work has been pretty separate from my fiction, as it was basically an accidental side project that turned into a separate and parallel career.

It's become a lot bigger than just winning championships. It's about inspiring hopefully millions at some point in my career.

For myself, if I'm trying to obtain a certain longevity in my career, to establish myself as a certain kind of star, I don't want that black exploitation image.
