Interview: Imelda Staunton
|
In order to promote awareness for the British Heart Foundation’s campaign to raise £1.5million this month for research, Imelda Staunton (Dolores Umbridge) agreed to do an interview for the Times in London. She supports the cause due to both of her parents dying from heart disease.
Ms. Staunton was an only child. Relying on her imagination for entertainment while both of her parents were working is what she believes contributed to her acting ability. "Fortunately my career has never been about how I look, it's about how I can be," the article quoted her.
Ms. Staunton mentions what she does to stay active and healthy like avoiding coffee and wine. She stated that having a child gives one “chutzpah”; and she also discusses Molly, her 18 month old terrier puppy.
