lizbee | Freema Agyeman: A great big picspam

I was going through my pictures and thought, "Hmm, you know who I love? Freema. And I have a lot of pictures of her. I should share that bounty with the internet."

Reasons to love Freema Agyeman, some of which aren't totally shallow. Well, one. I don't know. She's pretty, okay?

1. She looks good on a red carpet.

"In the early days, at award ceremonies I would get out of the car on to the red carpet, hear all the screaming, see all the lights flashing, and look for the Who fans. I'd go straight over and just stay with them."

2. She does amazing photoshoots.

I had chicken pox when I was 15 and scarred badly. I thought that [a chemical peel] would help. It didn’t help at all and it burnt my skin terribly. Huge areas of my face scabbed over and, when they fell off, there was pink flesh underneath. Luckily, it all healed and I had no extra scarring. But I learnt a valuable lesson; I had got so hung up on this tiny thing, which nobody else noticed and could have permanently damaged my face.

3. She's close to her family.

"To this day, the four of us are very close."

3a. She supports Divine Fairtrade Chocolate.

4. She is small, but surprisingly huggable.

5. Little Dorrit, man.

"I used to watch period dramas and think, 'I'd love to do that but I'll just have to accept it isn't going to happen.' Bang! Suddenly, I was sat there in my corset."

6. In Law & Order: UK, she wears a series of fabulous cardigans. HUSH THAT IS A TOTALLY VALID REASON FOR LOVE!

7. Finally, but most importantly, if you look up "adorkable" in the dictionary, you will find a picture of Freema Agyeman. Possibly one of these pictures.
