For a comedienne, you have to have a little tragedy or a dark side, just not too much. Otherwise it's too disruptive.

I do acting for the awards... and cash money.

I contracted malaria in rural Mozambique. I was a youth ambassador for Australia. For a year after high school, you give positive speeches about Australia and as part of it I traveled to lots of different countries.

I know, I pick up the roles other actresses don’t want [laughs]. When there’s movies where there are two sisters and one’s the uglier sister, there’s always no actress that wants to go for it. I’m like, why not! They’re the best roles!

If I get two lines in the script, I somehow turn it into 20. I've got a bit of a bad habit of doing that, of just embellishing my little moment.

When I was just a girl in Sydney, no one thought, 'Oh, she's going to be a movie star.' No one. I had to get by with actual skill and talent.

My American accent is really, really good. I started out in the theater, doing all different characters with all different accents. When I first came to America, I thought I would be playing American, all the time. It was just weird how it worked out that I played more international characters.

I've got a swimming pool and I pretend to be like a mermaid, like in the middle of the night. It kind of de-stresses me.

Because of my filming commitments in America, you have to sign contracts where you can't change your physical appearance.

I think that actresses can be in all different shapes and sizes, but it is a profession, and as an actor, your body is one of your big tools. So you've got to be fit in a sense.

I really like writing from real-life experiences. Audiences seem to prefer the stuff I couldn't have made up.

The more I know about America, the better I'll be at performing American characters and American stories.

When I was younger I did karate and martial arts, and I think it's really cool for girls to have those kinds of abilities.

I don't like karaoke because the mics are always so worn out. The quality of the mics is such that you're always going (screaming) Yeah, yeah! and then you can't like it. It's like sometimes I'm too professional to get up and do it.

My family keeps me pretty grounded. Like if I try anything diva, they're like, 'Oh shut up. Go and do the dishwasher.'

Usually when I ask people to reach into my velvety pouch it means something different.

I do notice that when I come in to meet casting people, they love that I'm Australian. Maybe it's our good work ethic.

Been sitting at home all weekend writing for MTV Movie Awards - unfortunately MTV won't let me do my strip routine ala Magic Mike.

I don’t really care what I look like that much, and I think women out there should just be happy with the way they look. They shouldn’t really try to conform to any kind of stereotype. Just be happy and hopefully healthy.

As a kid, I never thought I'd be an actress. Never, ever, ever, no way. I was really shy - bordering on social disorder shy - and I was really academic.
