Sometimes I take a movie selfishly because it's a female lead.

I'd like to work with David Lynch again.

I think Australians do well here because we feel a bit naughty, like we're in America and if they only knew how much fun we were having, we'd all get thrown out, you know.

I've discovered the best skincare, MV Organic Skincare. I love their Energising 9-Oil Cleanser, Rose Hydrating Mist and Rose Soothing & Protective Moisturiser

It's true that I can write a song and not really be sure what the meaning of it is.

I don't know if I ever really considered making a connection with the audience.

I just create, that's what I do.
