Los Angeles, May 28 (IANS) Actress Sophie Turner says fame has forced her to "grow up faster".
I definitely felt I had to grow up faster than I would have done. I'm very driven in terms of work, but I'm almost more playful and silly than my friends. I cling onto childhood, Turner, who rose to fame through her role of Sansa Stark in the popular series Game of Thrones, told InStyle magazine, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
Having a cynical perspective is best; in this industry, there's just a lot of rejection. We all have that mentality, where we know we're expendable. We all just thought, this is a job. Try not to get fired, she added.
The 20-year-old feels "almost embarrassed" about being famous as she feels people "look down" on her because she's known all over the world.
I feel almost embarrassed by being in the public eye sometimes. I almost get the feeling that people look down on me because of it. If you're on a night out, they will definitely tease you for it, she said.
