Quotables
"[I picked out] the most ridiculous, extravagant clothes - they looked really good in the shop. And then I put them on and I thought: you look such an idiot."

"I read the Variety review and their only comment was rangy. I thought it meant from the range, like a cowboy. But it just means tall and lanky."

"In England if you want to look rough, you go out and get really drunk and come in looking really hungover, but if you do that in America, it’s like, have you got a drinking problem?"

"I’m quite immature so that’s quite good, so I prefer to be a heart-throb!"

"I still trip over my feet and stuff when I’m not supposed to be doing anything."

"I guess I have this thing for dragons. It is very strange."

"I am in a band at the moment called Bad Girls. The band belongs to my first girlfriend’s current boyfriend and he was having an open mic night. He invited me to sing, but it was just a bit of fun - that was about six months ago. I don’t know where that’s going to go."

"I have been playing the piano for my entire life - since I was three or four. And the guitar - I used to play classical guitar from when I was about five to 12 years of age. Then I didn’t play guitar for like years. About four or five years ago, I got out the guitar again and just atarted playing blues and stuff. I am not very good at the guitar, but I am all right. I am in a band in London as well."

"[The band] is kind of like rocky Led Zeppelin type stuff. We only have done a couple of gigs. We are still trying to figure out its style. It is just a couple of friends of mine and some other people that I have met fairly recently. We just wanted to start a band for something to do. A lot of my friends are actors and we have so little to do all the time, so instead of just being bored, we were like, ‘Why not start a band?’ So we did!"

"Someone stole my shoelaces once from my shoes. I still wear them and never put laces in them - they’re like my trademark shoes now!"

"American’s fine, but I’ve never really been a big one for accents. Whenever I try to do any accents it ends up being a sort of Jamaican-Russian hybrid."

"I went to one of these signing conventions. It was one of the most interesting experiences I’ve had. It was so strange that people would pay for autographs. You keep thinking you should do a little dance for them as well or something."
