1) Nathalie drives a 2000 VW Jetta.
2) Nathalie’s favourite book is The War at the end of the World by Mario Vargas Llosa.
3) Nathalie runs on the beach as a form of exercise.(I didn't see her, when I'm jogging with my dog)
4) Nathalie is 5' 7" tall.
5) As of 2006, Nathalie has a three-picture deal with Universal.
6) She was trying to decide whether to continue her education or try to become an actor. She decided to try to act and eventually landed a starring role in the movie The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.
7) At the age of 16, Nathalie became a salsa dancer. She used the money she earned to finish her education. Nathalie: (the craziest thing she‘s ever done for love) When I was 18 years old and I’d finished school I went to Brazil for 7 months to work with street kids, but also because there was a boy I was in love with who lived there. That was pretty crazy. Apart from that I’ve got a good head on my shoulders. I let the boys do the crazy things for me. [laughs] I’m not about to do crazy things for them.
Nathalie: (her favourite scene in “Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift“) Definitely the last scene where I get to start the race. I always wanted to do that (laughs) ever since I watched Grease when I was a little girl. I had to work myself up and talk myself into doing that because that part of my character isn’t really me. I had all these extras watching me and it was kind of a tough job, but it was exciting to see it at the end. To finish the movie like that was awesome.
Nathalie: I’d wanted to be an actor since I was 12 years old – I’d done programs, I’d always done it in school - it’s just something I always wanted to do, and I knew I had to go out there and get noticed. It wouldn’t come to me.
