Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson says stars now are under more pressure to look thin and has described the situation as ‘much worse’ than before.
“There has always been pressure on actors to stay thin. There’s a scene in one of my favourite movies, All About Eve, where Bette Davis is circling around the room, horribly upset about something, and she picks up a chocolate… puts it down… picks it up again… puts it down again… finally, she gives in and eats it, but only after a huge struggle!” Johansson told Candis magazine, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
“So even back then, there was the pressure going on. And now, it’s much worse,” she also said.
