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

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.

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

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.

When you are in a relationship, you want the other person to appreciate the things you like. It sounds superficial, but it's nice.
