If you could have a coffee with any actor, singer or performer, who would you pick and what would you ask?

A natural way to answer

I'd choose a singer whose songs got me through some tough times. I'd ask where their ideas come from and how they keep going when the pressure is on. I imagine a lot of what they do happens behind the scenes, so I'd be curious about that.

Key phrases to use

• think on their feet — react and make good decisions quickly without preparation“A good host has to think on their feet.”
• made the cut — was good enough to be included or selected“Only three songs made the cut for the album.”
• behind the scenes — the hidden work or activity that the public doesn't normally see“There's so much work behind the scenes.”
• got under their skin — affected someone deeply, in a way that's hard to forget or ignore“That character really got under her skin.”
