Brie Larson is everything! Not only is she beautiful, but she’s modest and humble.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, she opens up about what life is like after fame.

“Everyone tells me I look like their cousin’s best friend,” she said. “That’s what I get in the Trader Joe’s checkout line. Like, ‘Do I know you? Are you my cousin’s friend?'”

When thinking back on her day job years, she said, “I just went by my name. I didn’t have any cool name. I’ve never been cool. It just truly was a day job, which happened to usually take place at night. But it was the way that I was able to survive for a really long time.”

And on adjusting to a new phase of her career: “I don’t feel like I’ve processed it yet and I think part of why I haven’t processed it yet is that I don’t feel any different in my body,” she explained. “I think that I’ve had some surreal experiences and things around me — external things — have changed, but most of my day-to-day is pretty normal still. My friends are the same. I eat the same foods. I still question if I’m a good actor. I know that I’m doing a fancy interview and so it seems like I should be, like, ‘It’s amazing! The world’s so new!’ It’s not. It’s exactly the same.”
