Desirable Woman, The Bold & Beautiful - Jennifer Winget

You stepped into the world of lights-camera action very early. Do you think it shaped your childhood differently?

It sure did, in more ways than one. As a kid from a middle-class background, I experienced the world very differently. I understood the value of work and how liberating it was to be independent and work with' your family, not 'for' them. All the credit goes to both my parents who would drop me to the sets, go to work and come back to be with me until I finished my shoot schedule for that day. No matter the time, they would return to work the following day, inspiring me to work just as hard.

I found my purpose and the clarity of what I wanted to do in life, that I wanted to be an actor. This firm foundation led me to never take anything or anyone for granted or let all the fame and flounce get to my head. They continue to keep me grounded even today. So yes, starting work early shaped and changed me, undoubtedly for my own good.

Your characters had all colours from pink to grey. How did they impact you?

Jennifer lives life in colour; what can I say? On a serious note, as an actor, it's helped me evolve and kept work exciting too. Also, without any formal training in acting, that's how I learnt and tried to hone my craft. The best thing for an actor is to experience; experience guides you to emote better, and emoting is what acting is all about.
