CELEBS SPOUTING NONSENSE

-

IS GOLDEN Globe winner Anya Taylor-Joy getting too attached to her characters? The 25-year-old, right, says she hates it when nasty things are said about the people she plays – even when those characters are sociopaths.

The Queen’s Gambit star played a troubled socialite called Lily in the film Thoroughbr­eds and says: ‘People would say, “God, your character’s horrible.”

‘It was as if they were insulting my little sister, and I’d say, “You don’t understand what she’s going through.”

‘When you’re playing them, you have to be OK with their choices. You have to justify them in your mind.’
