Marion Cotillard won the Best Actress Oscar for her role in 2007’s La Vie En Rose, but she still refuses to let her job come first.
She said: “I live as a girl who had big dreams and who is lucky enough to live those dreams while continuing to dream -- while at the same time living a real life.
“I don’t want to be someone else. And I’m not going to let my job take me away from myself. I’m not going to be haunted or disturbed.”
The 35-year-old beauty -- who is currently expecting her first child with partner Guillaume Canet -- also revealed her cinematic inspirations are classic comedy actors.
She told Empire magazine: “I admired Greta Garbo but I didn’t want to be her. I wanted to be Charlie Chaplin. I wanted to be Peter Sellers.”

Did Gwyneth Paltrow's singing get you to actually watch Country Strong? Have her Glee cameos left you wanting to hear more? Then good news for you!
Gwyneth is reportedly on the verge of signing a recording deal with Atlantic Records that would see her release a collection of country pop songs on the heels of her starring role in Country Strong. An anonymous source spoke with New York Post's Page Six.
"Gwyneth's agents have been talking to a number of labels about landing her a substantial record deal," the source said. "Those who have heard the music say it's country pop. Many labels would be reluctant to give a deal to a star whose first priority is film, but in recent weeks there have been discussions with Atlantic. Gwyneth is a very different name for Atlantic, and one who brings a lot of recognition."
Gwyneth has previously said she'd love to work with Jay-Z sometime, so maybe we'll have that collaboration to look forward to.

Sophie Monk Has Already Ended Engagement With 50-Year-Old Businessman

It was a slight shock when Sophie Monk announced her engagement five weeks ago to a much older, unknown businessman. Apparently, it wasn't a match made in heaven anyway.
The 31-year-old model announced she was "single again" on Monday's taping of Chelsea Lately.
So if 50-year old Jimmy Esebag didn't work for her, why not explore other romance options? Maybe that's the plan. She joked that she might "turn Samantha Ronson" and try dating other women.
Nothing wrong with that. But it sounds like Jimmy, who she recently called her "soul partner" and "male version of myself" wasn't all that she chalked him up to be. Or maybe it was the 19-year age gap.
Regardless, that's another gorgeous model back on the market!

Kate Winslet Likes Being On Her Own Post-Split
Kate Winslet Likes Being On Her Own Post-Split
eNewly single Kate Winslet looks ready to mingle! Kate left the Bafta Building in London before visiting the Louis Vuitton store in Mayfair. The Oscar-winning actress, who was wearing a simple knee-length black ensemble paired with Christian Louboutins, is getting over her recent split with boyfriend, English model Louis Dowler. (Pacific Coast News)
Kate Winslet – who announced she had separated from director Sam Mendes in March 2010 after almost seven years of marriage – feels as though she is currently at a time in her life when she needs to be single.
And the Oscar winner now just wants to concentrate on her two children - 10-year-old Mia, her daughter with ex-husband Jim Threapleton, and seven-year-old Joe, her son with Sam.
Kate - who embarked on a brief relationship with Burberry model Louis Dowler a few months after her marriage ended – said in an interview with Vogue: “Experiencing those moments of being alone ... is a very, very weird flooring and exposing position to be in when you're just not used to it. And it's not just being in a relationship. It's also the fact that I grew up in a family full of people."
She doesn't mind the solitude, though. “I've never been lonely. And with my kids Mia and Joe that remains the case. But to be in this place now where I can say I really like this space. I really need to not have anyone around. It's a surprise to discover that I like being on my own," she added.

The 66-year old musician and his wife Penny Lancaster, 39, welcomed their second child Aiden into the world on February 16 and the Maggie May singer admits the tot is keeping them both awake at night.
When quizzed on how the baby was during an interview with Absolute Radio Breakfast Show host Christian O’Connell, Rod Stewart revealed: “I’m absolutely knackered, I don’t think I’ve had any sleep for two weeks. The first couple of nights Penny said, ‘Well go and sleep in another bedroom, there’s no point in two of us getting any sleep,’ but for the last 10 days we’ve been together.
“But she’s great, I wake up in the middle of the night and she hasn’t had any sleep and she’s feeding him and smiling. I don’t know how mothers do it, I tell you, it’s just phenomenal,” he added.
With the addition of Aiden, Rod now has eight children but insists he and Penny won’t be having anymore because the “office is closed."
The singer -- who also has a five-year-old son with the former model and six kids from previous relationships -- said: “She agrees now, that’s it, you know, but I’m very proud of all my kids, they’re just tremendous. Most of them live in California, I’ll be going back there on Sunday.”
It was announced today that Rod will be headlining the Hard Rock Calling festival on June 26th in London’s Hyde Park. He is joining the bill of the music event – which is now in its sixth consecutive year – along with Bon Jovi. Rod is looking forward to the concert but is hoping it won’t rain on the day so everyone can have a good time in the sunshine.
He said: “I just hope it doesn’t rain, it always seems, when I do outside concerts, it p***es down with rain, so I’m really keeping my fingers crossed. It would be so lovely to go and have a beautiful sunset, I’m just praying for it, but it’ll be a great show.”
