00:00Emily, to your left!
00:02Emily, turn to us, please.
00:04Emily, who, what male celebrity has the nice butt?
00:07Wow, what a diva.
00:30Trying on way too many dresses, way too many outfits.
00:40I can't say I love that process.
00:42I'm not your typical girly girl.
01:00Actually, I went to nursery school in London, and that's sort of when I fell in love with acting.
01:10I used to put on productions for my parents.
01:30With the video, I mean, it did cause a storm of controversy, you know, once it had got out there.
01:49Looking back, do you have any regrets?
01:52Not at all.
01:53You know, I didn't originally sign on to do the video.
01:56I wasn't convinced of it.
01:58But when I met with the director, Diane Martell, I was really impressed with her, and I liked her ideas for it.
02:04So, you know, no regrets at all. It's gotten me to where I am.
02:28The Blurred Lines video, I think it seems to have opened a lot of doors.
02:42Am I right in thinking that that's kind of was part of the reason you got Gone Girl?
02:46Yeah, you know, I mean, I auditioned sort of in a room full of other girls first,
02:51but I think that definitely David liked the idea that my character, or even just from my modeling career, could be divisive.
03:21So I'm a young woman, and just to make one thing clear, I'm here because I support Bernie Sanders.
03:47I'm not here for the boys.
03:50I want my first female president to be more than a symbol.
03:54I want her to have politics that can revolutionize.
04:46Starting a business as a woman and a woman who has been thought of as nothing more than a sex symbol and a fashion model can be difficult and very overwhelming.
05:15For the health and safety of the general population,
05:44for those who are incarcerated and for those who work in prisons, it's crucial that Governor Cuomo now reduce the prison population.
