You know, I will tell you that when I was heavy, people would say to me - and it was such a backhanded comment - they would say, "You've got such a beautiful face," in the way of, like, "Oh, isn't it a shame that from the neck down you're questionable..."
I'm really, really proud to have won an Oscar - to walk away with the biggest red ribbon on school sports day that you could be given. I was the kid who never won the races. I never jumped the highest. I wasn't on the list of the high-achieving. That wasn't me.
So winning the Oscar was like winning all the prizes in one single night that I never won as a kid. For me, it was an internal-fist-pumping moment of YES.
