No. Course, there was this make-up thing that was distracting me.

I thought, maybe I want to be this huge make-up person,

and go to New York, and really try and do that. Um...

Your ambition about that was pretty clear, wasn't it?

There was a particular thing you wanted to achieve in make-up?

I love the artistry of it. It's like painting on a face,

except you're working with a three-dimensional canvas.
