Her brother introduced her to comics at a young age that led to her shaving her head bald except for a single cropping of blonde - emulating Tank Girl.

 

When she was working in the cloakroom at Brown's nightclub she met Robert Downey Jr. "Robert Downey Jr used to come in when he was filming Chaplin in London, and he's say to me: "You speak English so beautifully, can you say these lines for me ?' He'd tell me his lines and I'd say them back, and we'd be sitting there as I took him through his lines."

 

Is a huge Star Wars fan. Has owned her own lightsaber and Darth Vader watch.

 

Was the second model for the Lara Croft: Tombraider franchise. She was very popular with fans and become known for really getting into character. So much so, in fact, that the producers for the first film picked her brain for details about Lara's life and personality. While portraying Lara Croft, Rhona co-wrote and recorded an album, in character.

 

She enjoys sky-diving, rock climbing, and horseback riding.

 

One of her brothers owns an organic restaurant in London called Maquis.

 

Contrary to what some think, she did not have her breasts enhanced for her role as Lara Croft. "I'll tell you what that's about. If I were a boy, I'd be a tit man. I like tits. That was for my own fun." Also: her father did not perform the surgery himself, contrary to the creepy story published by British trash rag the Sun.
