“The thing that I think that has gotten much harder is that it used to ...” — Celine Song Quote

The thing that I think that has gotten much harder is that it used to be that this dating market or the marriage market used to be local. It would be about the garden parties or a town. But then what you realize is, well, in 2025, the marriage market or the dating market is not on our phones on social media and, of course, in all the dating apps.

Who we really are as human beings before our jobs and before everything else is always going to come out when we are talking about love and matters of the heart.

Dating is supposed to be a game we're playing in pursuit of love, but the language we use, the numbers that we are bringing up, they seem to be so far away from the actual ancient feeling and the miracle of love, which is something that cannot be quantified.

Materialists' is a kind of Victorian romance, because it's about the marriage market, the way that they always are.

I can't imagine dating someone famous. I try to stay away from that as much as I can.

I don't think I'm misunderstood, but there is definitely a certain side of me that the press focuses on - my body, my hair, or who I'm dating - which has never really served me as an actor. It's served me in the commercial world, making money as a model, but the media perception has really hindered my acting career.

In March 2008, when I was 24 years old, a man I had been dating arranged for an accomplice to throw sulphuric acid in my face.

Yeah, I think everybody has the crises of questioning themselves at some point or other in their lives. Is this where I should live? The job I should have? The girl I should be dating? Is this the friend I should have?
