She admitted the Californian school, which she says has improved over the years, turned its back on conventional schooling methods.

‘We didn’t really learn math or reading,’ she recalled. ‘But we had this awesome emotional movement class where our movement teacher would bang a tambourine and tell us to make a shape to express our feelings, so we had a great time.’

The 41-year-old beauty dazzled in a little black dress as she stepped out of Jimmy Kimmel Live in Los Angeles, where she was appearing to talk about her imminent hosting role at the Stand Up To Cancer benefit concert.
