She stole the show in Devil Wears Prada and George Clooney lent her his house in Italy for her wedding.

But despite being a Hollywood star, Emily Blunt still can't see what all the fuss is about.

The actress was recently signed as the face of YSL.

Scent of success: Emily Blunt is the star of YSL's Opium ad

But Emily claims she doesn't understand how she bagged the role.

When asked why she was chosen, She told The Telegraph: ''I don't know. I've no idea.

'There was no one else? They made a mistake, a terrible mistake.'

The 28-year-old stars in the new ad for Opium perfume.

The scene shows Emily, wearing a black suit, trying to elude a leopard, who is guarding a bottle of the scent.

Stunning: The actress described herself as very 'un-French'

The British actress said: 'God, I'm so un-French in that trailer.'

'I'm a woman, on a mission - er, in really high heels.'

Emily, married to the U.S Office star John Krasinski, recently starred opposite Ewan McGregor in Salmon Fishing In The Yemen.

The film is based on the novel by Paul Torday and co-stars Kristin Scott Thomas.

And surely, both stars - and all her fans - would disagree with Emily.
