Audrey TautouThe Da Vinci Code Audrey Tautou has revealed she found it rather strange to deal with fame after staring in Amelie and the film adaptation of Dan Brown’s book.

She explained recently: “I remember when I became very famous after Amelie. I was in a restaurant for my birthday with a friend. There was a huge table of people beside us and I was not really aware of this new celebrity I was experiencing.

“A guy came over and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I was shocked. Then he went back to his table and everybody was applauding him like he had won a bet. I was traumatised. I had become a bet!

“But now I’ve accepted the situation and I know how to handle it better.”
