Carey Mulligan lied about job

Carey Mulligan admits she used to lie about her job!

The actress has revealed that she used to tell people she was a “geography student” instead of an actress.

“I used to tell people that I was a geography student until I was, like, 23, because I’d say actress and they’d be like, ‘Oh, what have you been in?’ And I’d be like, ‘You won’t have seen it’,” she said.

“It was just so awkward and I hate that at Customs (at airports) because I’d sayNever Let Me Go (2010 movie), and they’re like, ‘Pfft!’ Because they demand that you tell them because they’re like, ‘Oh, you’re an actress. What have you been in?’

“You’re like, ‘You won’t have seen it.’ They say, ‘Go on!’ You say, ‘They’re chick flicks, you really won’t have seen it’. It’s awkward.”

Carey recently insisted she’d rather make cakes than crap movies!

“I’m not going to work for the sake of working,” she said.

“I’ll work, if I’m extraordinarily lucky enough to continue having the same opportunities. If there’s nothing around, then I’ll go home and make carrot cake.”
