The only song I can sing is “Lady in Red” so that must tell you how great it must have been.

Looking back at it now, I really feel like it was a gift because I don’t know if I have the talent to become a prima ballerina. It’s such a hard job to have. I don’t have any regrets about it.

What counts in Hollywood is box office. It doesn't really matter what people think of you as an actor because, as long as you have been in a movie that has made money, you will always get another job.

I'm intrigued more and more by complex female characters because I'm more in touch with myself. I realize how screwed up or complex I am. And I'm flattered that, little by little, more and more directors want to meet me.

Being German, I think we don't really express a lot of things.

Modeling is so... not superficial. Well, I guess it is. But it's boring.

I know a lot of people think, 'She's so glamorous.' But that's really not me at all.

I have a kind of boring personal life, to the paparazzi anyway, and I don't hang with the cool crowd.

You can learn any accent you want. It's a fascinating thing.

I like to stay fit by being generally active.

I made a French film called "Merry Christmas" which is a very European film. It's a World War I piece.

I'm European, small, dainty - but I actually consider myself more of a tomboy.

I only dance when I go out.

I don't want to live my life in a five-star hotel. That's not real life to me. You can't appreciate it.

I'm not a very good impersonator, my friends maybe, but not famous people.

My sport is biking. I'm not much of a gym person, but I like being outside - hiking, canoeing, camping.

In Paris, I rent a bike in the street and cycle around, and in L.A. I live up in the hills so I go hiking a lot.

I don't obsess about my weight. I just know I've got to watch it when my pants feel tight.

I don't have any romantic ideas about marriage. Trust me. A white dress... ? No. It's not something for me.
