We had a pretty big night after the Suicide Squad press. It was Cara’s birthday and she had this massive party at Suki’s house and it was just an outrageous party. But it was sweet too. Yeah, the party was fun but everyone’s favourite bit was when the sun’s coming up and you’ve got your closest friends, the squad there chatting and the sun’s coming up and everyone knows they should go home and shower and stuff but no one wants to leave each other because, it’s just good times all the time - sitting on a roof top until like midday.

They say there’s no such place as Paradise. Even if you search to the ends of the Earth, there’s nothing there. No matter how far you walk, it’s always the same road. It just goes on and on. But, in spite of that, why am I so driven to find it? A voice calls to me. It says search… for Paradise.

If you can make me laugh, my heart is yours! I think there’s nothing more attractive than someone who doesn’t take themselves too seriously.

I do feel a lot of pressure, but that comes from the fact that I’m 28 and I’m playing a 16-year-old girl. I know, I said it! So I don’t really know how to dress because I’m like Selena Gomez, or Carrie Mulligan, or somewhere in the middle. And so for me, I always want to be classy and pretty and sometimes I can look too mature so it’s a delicate balance to have. I feel a huge responsibility to be a role model, but I know that in order to do that I have to be relatable. Also, I think there’s a lot of pressure to look a certain way in Hollywood and I try to just not wear a tonne of makeup and do too much, ‘cause I think that just sends the wrong message. *
