On the film:
"It's a great story, great music. Tom hoover did an incredible job….particulary here in england….sing!!..sing! (to the crowd).
How gruelling was it preparing and working on the film?
"look it was gruelling because you had to sing for 12 hours a day…I think having done musicals, 8 shows a week..ultimately it was challenging, and it was the first movie where people had to sing live."
Disappointed about Tom Hooper not getting a best director nod?
"You know, of course to us, absolutely. I would not be on this red carpet if it weren't for Tom hooper. He's got many more great films to make. I think he will be thrilled that the film got nominated, he will take solace in that."
Is the British connection a good luck charm?
"I don't know. I don't want to bet anything. I don't know how it works, because it is a British project, spirtually. This is where that flame was really lit."
"This night means a hell of a lot. Thanks a lot!"
