Audrey Tautou Wanted To Be A Zoologist Audrey Tautou |
French actress Audrey Tautou has revealed that she wanted to be a zoologist and study monkeys when she was growing up.
"The Da Vinci Code" star admits that acting was never her ambition until she reached her late teens and started to enjoy socializing.
"I didn't plan to become an actress. I had no clue fame would land on me. As a child, I wanted to study monkeys but I changed my mind with the onset of hormones and suddenly I was a teenager and I found partying more interesting than nature and got into art and theatre and movies," she said.
Audrey Tautou mainly works in her native France because she prefers the anonymity.
"I like working once in a while in Hollywood because it's like a holiday but I am happy in France doing what I do... I am happy with my life, I have enough money, I like to be myself. I like to dance when I am drunk and have a good time. I don't go out much. I stay with my friends. This is what I like," she said.
