These are a few of my least favourite things

Turns out, Huma Qureshi actor, dancer, celebrity, citizen, woman and internet addict - is only human. Here's what pisses her off

Starting my day. Every morning, when I wake up, I have 30,000 emails and 20,000 messages to reply to. I literally hate my phone some days. My phone is my lover and my enemy; I can't live with it and I can't live without it.

Being a celebrity. It's not all fun and games. Sometimes when you go somewhere, you don't want to be recognised. You want to slip in and slip out, but that's just not possible. Sometimes I'm in the middle of a meal and people come up and say, "Can I take a picture?" I have to tell them, "Can I just finish my meal?" Other times I'm dying to pee and I'm making my way to the bathroom, and there are cameras along the way.

Red-carpet events. The heels! Oh my god, the heels. Most of red-carpet outfits and gowns only look good with heels. And most high-heeled shoes are designed for pain and torture. I think it's the last standing bastion of misogyny. It's really cruel.

Learning dance routines. You know you have to do it. But some days, it honestly feels like you've got two left feet and they're just not going where they're meant to. I always get the steps right the next day. With me, this is common: Somehow overnight, I improve miraculously. Maybe it's muscle memory.

Fashion trends that keep changing. What does "trending" mean? I see people struggle to identify, source, buy and put themselves into the look of the moment, and endlessly chase the next big trend. Most styles are out of fashion in two weeks or two months. Who decided that? It pisses me off.
