Audrey Tautou can charm cows with her oboe.
The 29-year-old actress – who is currently starring in French comedy “Priceless” – quickly realized she wasn’t particularly proficient at playing the wood instrument, but discovered her performance attracted an unusual audience.
She said: “I knew that I didn’t have a career in the oboe, so that’s why I gave it up.”
“I did have one success though. I was in the kitchen of my parents’ house and I was giving them a little concert.”
“I think they were devastated by my level of playing the oboe.”
“But then I noticed that the cows in the field next to my house started coming towards me.”
“So I now know I can charm cows with my oboe!”
Audrey also revealed how she keeps her enviable figure in shape.
She added to BBC Radio 1: “Tuna with pasta and mayonnaise – that is the secret behind my diet!”
