With this, I had to go to the director and just say, 'It's so foreign for me to be this over the top. So if this looks silly, like you've got to tell me. I will be grateful, not offended in any way.'" She added, "We sort of realized that with Daphne, there was no limit. She just doesn't care what other people think. She is all about her, and so there is no real wrong."
