 | | America Ferrera says Eva Longoria and Jessica Alba are not curvy |
America Ferrera can't believe super-slim actresses like Eva Longoria and Jessica Alba are labeled "curvy".
The 'Ugly Betty' star insists she is more deserving of praise for her genuinely shapely figure than the two slender screen beauties.
She said: "There's just way too much attention placed on the way we look. I think it's hilarious when people call Jessica Alba or Eva Longoria curvy. Come on - they're not curvy. I'm curvy!
"I've been really lucky. Playing Betty has prepared me to be exactly who I am and not to change.
"What is normal now? Is it normal to be size zero? Starving yourself is not beautiful."
The 23-year-old actress loves the fact that playing the dowdy-looking Betty means she doesn't have to constantly worry about her appearance.
She added: "If I've gained a pound or lost a pound, or have food in my teeth, it all works for the show!"
