Naomi
Watts'
friends
call
her
"Granny".
The
pregnant
King
Kong
actress
has
revealed
friends
mock
her
because
she
leads
such
a
quiet
life.
Naomi,
who
is
also
terrified
of
appearing
on
the
red
carpet,
told
You
magazine:
"Believe
me.
There's
nothing
natural
about
a
red-carpet
experience.
People
scream
your
name
at
the
top
of
their
voices,
100
of
them
at
a
time,
and
it
just
makes
your
heart
leap
out
of
your
chest.
I
don't
like
being
in
loud
places
any
more
-
all
my
friends
call
me
Granny!
My
favourite
thing
is
welcoming
people
in
to
my
home."
Naomi, 38, rarely makes public appearances, leading her movie star boyfriend Liev Schreiber to describe her as a "wallflower". The Australian star's fondness for a quiet night in is at odds with the character she portrays in new movie 'The Painted Veil', in which she stars alongside Schreiber and Ed Norton. Naomi plays a spoiled society girl who cheats on her rich husband with Schreiber's married diplomat character.
The actress reveals that the couple's budding relationship off set created steamy sexual chemistry during their scenes together. She said: "People always think that if you are a couple it won't work on screen because if two actors know each other too well it takes away some of the mystery that you need for a love scene to be convincing. Maybe it works in 'The Painted Veil' because we were in the early stages of our relationship. "Watts has been with Schreiber for almost two years, and the pair are expecting their first child in August.
