Tropes related to this actress:
- Fake American: She rarely plays an Australian like herself. She played one in London, and in Soap Opera Home and Away. Here's a clip. She nailed a killer Southern accent in Rango, that being said.
- Genki Girl: She made a career of playing highly upbeat characters.
- Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: Real Life example. She is 5'3", a full foot shorter than her husband, Sacha Baron Cohen.
