<p>Emmy Rossum has revealed she has been banned from watching the British version of Shameless, despite starring in the American adaptation.</p>
<p>The Phantom Of The Opera star plays oldest Gallagher sister Fiona in the US version, the part played by Ann Marie Duff in the award-winning comedy drama about a chaotic family on a Manchester council estate.</p>
<p>Emmy revealed: &#8220;I&#8217;ve never seen it. Paul Abbott, the creator, has asked that I not see it just so I take a fresh take on the story and the character.</p>
<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a lot of pressure to live up to and also do something different than the British series because it is so great and has such a loyal fanbase that we&#8217;re not trying to copy &#8211; we&#8217;re just trying to do our own version of it. I think the stories will be somewhat similar &#8211; similar-ish.</p>
<p>&#8220;I play Fiona &#8211; she&#8217;s kind of the pseudo-mother of the brood. She is feisty and loyal and outspoken and I really dig her a lot. She&#8217;s awesome.&#8221;</p>
<p>The 24-year-old actress, who was speaking as she arrived at the CNN Heroes awards, said she was really enjoying the show&#8217;s British sense of humour.</p>
<p>She said: &#8220;I like how ballsy it is, how fresh and it&#8217;s got a lot of punk, rock and roll energy to it, so it should be good.</p>
<p>&#8220;Just getting to deal with the material is so fun and exciting and it&#8217;s raw, it&#8217;s challenging and I get to be funny, hopefully, which is fun.&#8221;</p>
<p>:: British viewers can see CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tribute on Friday November 26.</p>
