I do think I go out of my way to be a very normal person and I just find it frustrating that people think that I’m some kind of weirdo reclusive that never comes out into the world. Y’know, I’m a very strong person and I think that’s why actually I find it really infuriating when I read, “She had a nervous breakdown,” or, “She’s not very mentally stable, just a weak, frail little creature.”
For the last 12 years, I’ve felt really privileged to be living such a normal life. It’s so a part of who I am. It’s so important to me to do the washing, do the Hoovering. Friends of mine in the business don’t know how dishwashers work. For me, that’s frightening. I want to be in a position where I can function as a human being. Even more so now where you’ve got this sort of truly silly preoccupation with celebrities. Just because somebody’s been in an ad on TV, so what? Who gives a toss?
