Michelle Pfeiffer said that her good looks make her work harder to prove other people that she really can act.
Michelle Pfeiffer says her career has been hampered by her beauty.
The blonde actress says her good looks have been a curse because she has to
work harder to make people believe she can act.
Michelle told Allure magazine: "It was harder for me to get a good part.
When I went to an audition I had to be better because I was beautiful."
The 48-year-old, who played a plain waitress in 'Frankie and Johnny'
alongside Al Pacino, says she was furious when her portrayal was slammed.
Michelle insists critics didn't believe her performance because she was too
beautiful for the role.
The 'What Lies Beneath' actress said: "That was one of the biggest
criticisms, that you couldn't believe me in the part. And my argument is
always, 'You know everyone can be damaged. And pretty people can be just as
damaged as ugly people or fat people.' "
