[Livia]

God, I hate awards shows. Lots of luvvies giving each other awards while wearing designer-donated clothes and Jewellery and gushing about their "art". They all take themselves so seriously and just can't bring themselves to acknowledge that they're lucky to be living the dream. There should be an award for "best actor to have spent the last year waiting tables". Acting is something you're either good at or not, like learning languages or playing the piano. Anyone can learn to play the piano but you have to have a natural inclination to do it well. And it doesn't matter how good you are you either have to have parents who are actors, be in the right place at the right time or be able to afford a fabulous publicist. Act, do it well but don't overestimate the importance of what you're doing or how lucky you are to be well paid for it. And definitely don't expect a ****ing trophy. Sir Anthony Hopkins said, "It's just acting. It's not brain surgery". How true.
