W Magazine (link below) doesn't conduct the most in-depth interviews, though somehow their one paragraph interview with Mia Goth managed to pack a handful of revelations. The model and actress reveals that she had to audition for her role in Nymphomaniac Vol. II completely nude because Lars von Trier is a world class creep.
When Mia Goth auditioned for Lars von Trier’s films Nymphomaniac Volume I and II, she knew she would have to read in the nude for the director. “I was fine with that,” said Goth, who lives in Los Angeles (she’s the girlfriend of the tabloid darling Shia LaBeouf) and will appear in this year’s climbing epic Everest (out in September). “I did a little boogie around the room to give the nudity some character. For that role, I would have done anything. And my desire must have been clear, because I got the part!”
In case you missed it, as it's kind of buried in there, she's also dating confused performance artist and even more confused alcoholic Shia LaBeouf. Good on him. Why shouldn't he get to headline franchises and bang women like Mia and Megan Fox.
The fact that 21-year old Mia was only 14 when Amy Winehouse was at the height of her fame was another depressing revelation. Damn kids...
For years, however, her style heroine was the retro-punky Amy Winehouse. “At 14, I was beehived out,” Goth confessed. “I’m glad there are no pictures!” Lately, Goth resists being pegged to a particular style. “I want to seem completely bare. Especially when I’m reading for a role. I want to reveal myself in the audition room. That’s where I’m happiest. I love the competition. Auditioning is like boxing: It keeps me hungry and intense, whether I get the part or not.”
Someone needs to tell this poor thing that she doesn't have to be bare when she reads for every role. Lars has completely warped this young woman's sensibilities about auditioning.
