Just because we enjoy a camp Disney classic (Enchanted) or bitchy chick flick (Drop Dead Gorgeous), it doesn’t mean we aren’t totally into serious drama (Doubt) or quirky indie films (Junebug). And the actress who has led us on this cultural roller coaster, lurching spectacularly from low- to highbrow, is the delicious Amy Adams, who trips seamlessly from singing and dancing in The Muppets, to playing the manipulative wife of a cult leader alongside method supremos Philip Seymour Hoffman and Joaquin Phoenix in next month’s Oscar-tipped drama The Master. We heart her diverse range and silly roles — who else could share the screen with Fozzie Bear and still be a credible leading lady? We also love that Amy keeps a low profile in Hollywood, preferring to spend time with her fiancé, the actor and artist Darren Le Gallo, and their baby Aviana. But the Italian-born actress isn’t all sweetness: ‘I’m pretty Sicilian if I’ve been crossed,’ she admits. ‘I don’t seek revenge, but I never forget.’
