Michelle Williams 'fighting Mike Tyson a dream come true'

Michelle Williams wants to fight Mike Tyson.

The actress says it’s her childhood dream to take on boxer Tyson in the ring.

“I started doing plays when I was eight. I always wanted to act. First I wanted to be a boxer, though. I don’t know why but I wanted to fight Mike Tyson. That was the dream,” Williams said.

Michelle says she was particularly proud when she mastered the art of cookery during a break from making films in 2008. The star is mother to five-year-old Matilda, and admits the little girl didn’t at first appreciate her mom’s skills in the kitchen.

“I’ve never really been much of a cook and at the beginning I would put dinner on the table and both Matilda and I would sort of [turns her nose up]. She would gamely take a bite and then say, ‘Not so good’ and I’d go ‘You’re right, it’s terrible,’” laughed Michelle.

“It would take me three hours to make something really simple. But by the end of the year I had a few things in my back pocket.”

Williams who sought legal emancipation from her parents at 15 to make it easier to embark on an acting career recently claimed there are “no limits and no rules” in Hollywood.

“There were no limits, no rules. I made mistakes and tried to implement my own safety rules,” she said.

“I thought of it like those partitions you have at bowling alleys the stuff I will do, the stuff that I won’t do. Although I still veered crazily across the lanes, I didn’t fall in the gutter.”

“I kind of slugged my way through, but I didn’t enjoy life in Los Angeles. In North Carolina you could crawl into a shell like a snail and not come out. It was quite a contrast,” she admitted.
