I wish I could just accept that I'm not that good and not be shy about the fact that I'm not that professional.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Image
Maybe, in the back of my head, I'm thinking I have to do as much as I can. It'll stop.

You think that being a girl is degrading, but secretly, you'd love to know what it's like, wouldn't you?

Image
Style for me is a casual way of putting something on. It's not thought out but needs to suit your way of life. Now I like wearing the same sweater over and over again, then taking it off when it's smelly.

Image
I haven't found a comfortable place onstage. I'm sure it doesn't have to be comfortable, but I'm very nervous, so I don't enjoy myself.

Image
I don’t have tons of scripts where I don’t know what to choose and I’m trying to calculate. It’s either I read something and I have an impulse to do it, or in meeting someone, I want to work with them, but it’s always been very obvious.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Image
Everyone gets the feeling that they know you and they know your life, and I felt really embarrassed by that.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Image
In France I'm very private, I don't like talking about my life, and I imagined that people would think that I'm now an open book.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Image
In France, you're with the crew, and you have lunch with them. It's more like a family.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Image
Even moving around onstage seemed very artificial. But at the same time you have to make that effort in order to get back to who you are and even accept not moving, if that's who you are.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Image
I wasn't getting the responses I hoped for. You can't protect yourself from other judgments.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Image
I felt that people would criticize everything. I was so scared about playing Paris. I was very much aware that the greatest concerts my father and mother had done were there. I was sure people would be very tough.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Image
I went on television and I wouldn't say a word I feel so stupid when I watch them again.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Image
Before I started touring, I worked with someone to help me, even physically, because I was so shy. And you can't be shy going onstage. So I had to push myself in a direction that wasn't myself.

At the beginning it wasn't to do with the work, it was more the experience.
