Vanessa Paradis has revealed that she finds fame difficult to cope with at times.
The singer, who has children Lily-Rose, 11, and Jack, 8, with partner Johnny Depp, explained that she dislikes how her celebrity status affects her family life.
She told The Guardian: "I have contradictory feelings about it. It brings me lots of privileges - it helps me to find a doctor in an emergency, or a table in a restaurant.
"But it also steals my private life, and it's difficult when it affects my family. My children shouldn't be touched by it."
The star also explained that the most valuable advice she's been given was from her mother.
She added: "My mom told me to have patience. It's about realising that when things aren't going the way you want them to, or you don't have inspiration, it will come."
