Amy Adams’ Family Keep Her Grounded

Posted by Adam

Amy AdamsAmy Adams has her family and friends to thank for helping her keep her feet firmly on the ground.

The star – who was nominated for the Best Supporting Actress gong at the 81st Academy Awards for her role in the 2008 movie Doubt – says someone always put her back in her place if she steps out of line.

“I surround myself with people who are pretty honest with me. I’d like to believe they’re honest with me,” says Adams. “They’re not afraid to tell me no — and that’s to me the most important thing.

“They let me know when I’ve stepped out of line and I have a really great support group. I think that’s the key.”

Adams, 34, recently revealed how she used to dream of a career in dancing.

“I loved performing but I was much more of a singer dancer girl,” she said. “I trained as a ballet dancer so I always thought that was what I was going to do.”
