My mum's amazing - every time I achieve something in my career, she buys me a diamond earring. Katie McGrath achieveamazebuy Change image and share on social
I do keep getting these bad girl roles. The funny thing is that, honestly, I don't think I'm believable as these aristocratic mean girls. But I do love playing them. Katie McGrath aristocraticbadbelievable Change image and share on social
I spend a lot of time on eBay buying vintage. I also really like Alexander Wang, Miu Miu, Vivienne Westwood, McQueen and Balmain. Katie McGrath alexanderbalmainbuy Change image and share on social
If I could have picked an era to have lived, I think I would've loved to have been one of Louis XIV's mistresses. They were so fantastic and aristocratic, and they had so much power. And he was such a renaissance man. I think I would've fit into that nicely. Katie McGrath aristocraticerafantastic share on social
Maybe people don't see me as believable playing a person of today. I guess I'm just more realistic in a corset and funny hairstyles. Katie McGrath believablecorsetfunny Change image and share on social
Working crew made me realise that the actors are a very small part of a very big machine, with each part being vital to make the show work. It so important to remember that it's not about you, it's about the show, and working crew hammered that point home to me. Katie McGrath actorbigcrow share on social
I can't watch most of my work. Once I come on screen, all I can think of is 'What am I doing with my hands?' or 'Why did I lean that way?' or 'What's that look on my face?' It's too difficult to not focus on evaluating my acting. Katie McGrath actdifficultevaluate share on social
I had this vague notion that one day I might be editor of 'Vogue China.' It was a bizarre ambition, as I didn't speak a word of Chinese. There were flaws in my plan, admittedly. Katie McGrath admittedlyambitionbizarre Change image and share on social
I grew up in a small town in Ireland and didn't know any actors. I never thought it was a viable job. It wasn't until I was on 'The Tudors' that I realised it was a possibility. Katie McGrath actorgrowireland Change image and share on social
My friend once sculpted me a bust of Admiral Ackbar from 'Star Wars.' He's my favourite character in the films after Han Solo. He's that goldfish-type alien in the white costume. 'It's a trap!' I'm a big geek. Katie McGrath ackbaradmiralalien share on social
