CLAIRE HOLT

Chocolate is really a problem. I'm trying to be healthy right now, so I'll eat carob chips, which are kind of like chocolate. But sometimes I'll have a midnight snack, and I'll wake up, and I'll find chocolate in my bed.

I am so glad I was able to do 'The Originals,' and I want to be a part of that family for a long time.

One of the interesting things about being a female police officer in the '60s is they really didn't have opportunities to do any serious police work - they filed, and they made coffee, and they were treated like secretaries.

I've become completely obsessed with Netflix original programming. 'House of Cards' and 'Orange is the New Black' are two of my new favorite shows. I also love having access to such an amazing library of film and television and have watched some truly enlightening documentaries.

The great thing about 'Pretty Little Liars' is it shoots in Los Angeles where my home is, so I got to live at home and wake up in my own bed.

I'd be a whale shark. I'd like to be the biggest. The winner. Size is always important.

I came to America at such a young age, and I was so naive that I didn't realise what I was getting myself into; maybe that's why it worked out for me.

Show me how you dance and I will know where you are from.

Skype is one of the world's greatest inventions. I use it almost daily to connect with the people I care about when I'm away shooting. It makes the distance so much more bearable and I actually feel like I'm in the same room as my loved ones.

I'm hesitant to judge people. My favorite saying is "you do you." But, hopefully, you don't have to seek external validation from others to feel good about yourself.

My boyfriend - Matt Kaplan - is American, so any time I'm unsure of how to say something, I say, 'Hey how do you say this?' and he yells it out.

I would love to continue to challenge myself by trying different things. Action, Drama, Comedy. I would be grateful to do any and all of it if someone is kind enough to hire me!

The thing about 'Aquarius' is it's incredibly original, and it's really different than anything on network television. The story is so compelling, and it's something people are fascinated by.

I was always taught about the importance of giving back and helping those less fortunate. I think it's also incredibly rewarding.

I am actually terrified of sharks; it is my number-one fear.

I was born in the 1980s, so learning about the late 1960s was really fascinating, not only just because of the way things looked and sounded but because of what was going on in society at that time.

Every morning, I wake up and make the most nutrient-dense green smoothie I can.

Nothing clears my head and puts things in perspective quite like a long, hard run.

A lot of people ask me, when I mention I'm from Australia, that I must have been on 'Home And Away,' and I tell them was one of the few who didn't take that route. That's because I auditioned for 'Home And Away,' and I didn't get booked, so you'd call that a knock back.

One of the greatest gifts in life is giving time and giving love. It helps me to stay grateful and happy.

I am the opposite of boring, but I'm a little reckless, and I'm not against taking risks, and I think I'm always down for an adventure.

It's nice to be able to directly speak to fans and thank them for their support. The only time that it can get tricky is when they are unkind or say things that may not be so easy to say if they weren't behind a computer. Bullying is never ok. I personally have only experienced it very infrequently so overall I enjoy Twitter and Instagram but I'm definitely aware of it.

I have such a wonderful time on The Originals though, because I get to play Rebekah in so many different periods. I'm a little spoiled.
