Rebel Wilson was honoured last night at our Ultimate Women of the Year Awards, sponsored by Baileys. But she's not just our Ultimate Woman, oh no. She's also our ultimate MERMAID, which was why we just had to quiz her on how we can all channel our inner mermaid and live our best lives.
So here's how you do it, Rebel style...
"Like, if you're in the water then it's going to deflate anyway. So the bigger the better when you're on land."
"Mermaids are very free and they're like seductive sirens, so embrace that."
"To instantly feel like a mermaid you just do this face," Rebel advised us:
"I'm in a marine coloured sequin dress tonight which is a bit mermaidy, a bit seaweed…ish. Or maybe not, maybe it's just emerald."

Conversation swiftly moved on from all the mermaid talk, however, to Rebel reminding us that women can be funny AND clever.
And if anyone should know, it's her. With two university degrees (one in law and one in arts) what she has in wit she certainly doesn't lack in intelligence.
"Most people think that I'm totally stupid because they see me in movies and are just like 'oh Rebel, she just mucks around all the time'," she told us on the red carpet.
"But I think it's really fun because when people think you're an idiot and then you're negotiating a contract or something opposite them and they're like... 'woah, hang on, how did you, like, know about that?' And I'm like… 'because I'm a qualified lawyer'. And then it freaks people out. It messes with them."
