Beautiful Norah Jones recently opened up and talked about what it was like making her debut as an actress in My Blueberry Nights, alongside Jude Law, Natalie Portman and Rachel Weisz.
On not having planned on starting an acting career:

"It's nothing I seriously thought of or even wanted to try. But the truth is I like to ham it up with my friends. The bad news is I've always been a bit of a shy performer. So I was more than a little bit nervous about doing a movie."

On having no experience:

"The director welcomed my natural reactions. Honestly, I don't know if I could be a great actress in a different situation, but it worked for this movie. It was such a unique film with a unique director that I just trusted him. He told me not to take acting lessons. He just wanted me to be raw and natural. So in many ways the entire movie was one big acting lesson."

On her character, Elizabeth, whose heart is broken when her boyfriend leaves her for another woman:

"I think all girls will identify. Poor Elizabeth is very sad, but I didn't want her to seem pathetic. Yet there is one scene where she's on the street looking up into an apartment window where her boyfriend is having fun with his new girlfriend. At that moment, she really is the saddest girl on earth, which just breaks my heart. But we've all been there."

On how crazy it was kissing Jude Law:

"It was an interesting situation and it was just plain weird. I had to kiss Jude about 90 times and I didn't want to laugh, but it seemed so ridiculous. What in the world am I doing kissing Jude Law? He's Jude ... and I'm ... me. We laughed a lot between takes. It was actually very choreographed, but there was beautiful music playing in the background. Now when I hear that music I think about kissing Jude Law."

Aww, I love Norah and she sounds like such a sweet person. I'm definitely curious to see this movie and check out her skills as an actress. Something tells me she'll do a great job :)
