Michelle Williams Says Being Famous Is "Wearing"

 
December 9, 2008 
 

Michelle Williams says being famous is "wearing." The 28-year-old actress - who has a three-year-old daughter Matilda from her relationship with late actor Heath Ledger - dislikes living in the spotlight and hopes the interest in her will fade soon.

She said: "I do sometimes wish that I could live with less attention but not being totally ignored by the world."

"It's very wearing to be a celebrity. I wonder if people are going to follow me or if someone is going to pop out of nowhere with a camera. I get very angry but I'm trying not to let it stop me from living."

"You're sort of straddling that fine line between being kind and courteous and everything that your mother raised you to be to strangers that come up and refuse to respect your privacy."

Despite finding the interest in her life stifling, Michelle is determined not to give up acting and recently received a Best Female Lead nomination at the 2009 Indie Spirit Awards for her role in "Wendy and Lucy."

The actress revealed she has become more confident about her acting abilities as she has got older.

She added to Parade magazine: "I still have to put up a fight to get the environment right on the set when I'm acting. And, as a woman, it's hard to do. You're taught to be polite and quiet so that nobody will think you're difficult."

"When I worked with Philip Seymour Hoffman on 'Synecdoche,' I saw him get really militant about keeping people out of his eye line. I thought, 'Gosh, I've always felt like that, but I've been too shy to really say anything.' And so when you see somebody else do it and still be respected, it makes you go, 'Well, I'm going to try it too.'"
