“It doesn’t seem like it, but I’m rather modest” : Camille Lellouche tells us about her role in Gifts
After playing in Damien wants to change the world de Xavier de Choudens, My stranger by Hugo Gélin, or even The Lucky One by Frank Bellocq, Camille Lellouche is back in this choral film as cacophonous as it is funny. And she must admit, her character resembles her in a few points! “The luck I had was that my character is very uncomfortable! He doesn't like surprises or gifts. Charlotte doesn't like not being in control, especially when it comes to relationships romantic or sexual. She has a little rejection and fear of commitment. I never really liked scenes of kissing, love, etc. […] It doesn't seem like it, but I'm rather modest. I can't do everything either.”she jokes. So she didn't have too much trouble getting into the skin of her character, since he is as reserved as she is. On the other hand, unlike Charlotte, in real life, Camille Lellouche is married and has been the mother of little Alma since 2022. His greatest gift.
“She speaks very well, she is hyper alert” : Camille Lellouche about her daughter
“It’s more than a nice gift”confides the actress to Tele-Leisure. “I'm very religious, so I prayed for a long time to have this little girl. I wonder, it's a bit cliché, but what did I do before? I was very happy at a very young age, then not much for a few years . Since she's here I'm happy again. It's very nice to be able to say that we're happy, especially thanks to a little being.. And the young woman continues, with stars in her eyes, about the personality of her little wonder. “Besides, well, obviously I have no objectivity, but she's crazy! She's funny, she's intelligent. She's two years old, but you can have a conversation with her as if she were 4 or 5. She speaks very well, she is very alert. She sings, she invents songs, she has a little piano, I don't know if it's fortunately or unfortunately, it's great to have her. “. It must be said that, although she wanted to be a mother, Camille Lellouche had to face some obstacles. “I'm relieved to tell myself that I will have at least one child. Two, I don't know. It takes time. I was told that I wouldn't be able to have one. Apparently so, so! […] Whatever happens, I always put things into perspective. What I couldn't do before because I was missing my daughter.”. A touching declaration of love during this time when family matters more than anything.
