Hilary Swank still can`t believe in her fame
Despite being an Oscar winner, the `Conviction` star still finds it odd to think of herself as a Hollywood superstar because in her head she`s still the same person she was growing up.
And she could scarcely believe it when she was honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2007.
She said: "I remember going to the Hollywood Walk of Fame and seeing everyone`s names and the Hollywood sign. To later get my name on the Walk of Fame was a big moment. Really moving."
Although she finds it hard to think of herself as a famous movie star, Hilary is very grateful for her career and credits her mother Judy for pushing her to be successful.
She said: "Mom called up an agency, which is really rare, and she just said, `My daughter`s really beautiful and talented, you should meet her.` I went and read for a McDonald`s commercial, they signed me up and I was with them for five years."
