Actress Ali Larter has revealed that she was once told to lose weight mid-way through filming a movie, saying that producers faxed her manager and agent with the request, rather than asking her directly.
Larter, 32, who is engaged to actor Hayes MacArthur, describes the scenario as �embarrassing� and admits that she is uncomfortable being judged on her looks.
“When I was shooting a movie once, the faxes went out from the producers and the director to my agents to my manager to call me and ask me to lose weight,� she says.
“I just remember sitting in my trailer hysterically crying from the embarrassment I felt about myself, my body � and that no one could talk to me directly.�
She added to Allure magazine, “My fiancee will always say to me, ‘Please - you’ve got Hot-Girl Syndrome.’ I think that’s where insecurity comes from, because it starts with being celebrated for the way you look… and it’s weird that it’s something you did nothing to get.”
