The L Word France - Rachel Shelley dans Ok Magazine

Rachel Shelley, qui a donné naissance à une petite fille le 8 septembre dernier, a été interviewée par le magazine Ok! il y a quelques mois et nous avons trouvé les scans en question.

Même si elle n'est pas très sympa avec les fans (c'est ironique, hein!) en nous faisant languir pour le prénom de sa princesse, on a quand même voulu partager ces sublimes photos et ce petit entretien avec vous!

Cliquez sur les miniatures pour voir les photos en taille réelle et précipitez-vous dans la suite du post pour lire l'interview! (en anglais, of course!)

OK! Mag: We are a bit jealous about the fact that you worked with David Bowie...

Rachel Shelley: I had to do scenes with him for Everyone Loves Sunshine, when I was tied up and being held hostage. In the film he rescues me, but in between takes he'd ask me if I wanted him to untie me and because it took so long I said no, so he gave me a massage instead!

OK: You're such a lucky girl!

RS: I used to have a crush on him when I was a kid. It was bizarre but brilliant.

OK: You've also been to the Oscars...

RS: I only found out that I could go the morning of the ceremony - and I was hungover! I didn't have any time to prepare and actually went with wet hair!

OK: Was it everything you thought it'd be?

RS: It was pretty incredible, but I would have enjoyed it more if I'd had time to prepare. And because I was on my own, I made friends with a couple next to me who had been going for years and they fed me snacks during the breaks as it's a long night.

OK: The L Word is back for its final season. It must have been hard to film?

RS: Yeah it was. It's the longest job I've ever had and on location you become very close with everyone.

OK: Will people be able to follow it, even if they haven't seen the show before?

RS: What's great is that it's being filmed as a miniseries, centred around a murder mystery, so you don't have to have seen all the previous episodes.

OK: Your character's a bit of a bitch, isn't she?

RS: Well, she has a lot of money and therefore power and arrogance.

OK: She wears some amazing clothes...

RS: At the end of every season, there was a wardrobe sale and you had first dibs on everything you wore. But because I played a millionaire it was very high-end, so I couldn't really afford it.

OK: How was it being an English actress making it big in America?

RS: In England I'd played sweet, vulnerable girls and then as soon as I went to the States I was cast as girls who were slightly bitter or selfish. I hadn't changed, it was the perception of me that they had.

OK: Were you typecast or stereotyped as a British actress?

RS: The one thing people definitely presume with the accent is that you're much better educated. It's quite funny really, you just have to go with it.
