Then started playing men's cricket when I was 15. That's when I stopped enjoying it. It was long days, 50-over games with men 15 years older who you don't really have anything in common with, all talking about going to the pub.
I was enjoying my football, even though it wasn't really going well. That's when I said to my dad, who as a New Zealander was very keen on me playing cricket, that I would choose football.
I have always had confidence and known what I am capable of. So it is frustrating when you are not showing everyone.
I knew I could not cope with the future unless I was able to rediscover the past.
I love doing 'Cope.' It allows me to do all three things I love: singing, dancing, and best of all, acting!
Everyone wants to play all of the time; everyone wants to be involved. Sometimes, it is not possible. For me, it is just football. You have to cope with these things.
When people say, 'I don't like laughter on a TV show', I think, 'How do you cope when you're watching a stand-up gig live?' - it's the same thing!
It is a physical game here in England, but I can cope with it.
Maybe I was an even better cricketer than a footballer.
