Anne Hathaway has complained that she is tired of being labelled as a "regular girl".
The Brokeback Mountain star thinks that the term is another way of labelling her "fat" - which is one worry that she doesn't have time for.
"It does kind of bother me when people come up and say: 'It's so refreshing to see someone regular in Hollywood.' I'm like: 'What does that mean?' I don't want to be the regular girl because that's a code word for fat by the Hollywood system," Breakingnews.ie quotes her as saying.
"In Hollywood you have to be careful if you go above a six, then you're considered fat. I'm considered to be, I hope, an actress, and you can get away with a couple of extra pounds if you are trading on your talent instead of your sex appeal. I don't have time to be tortured by my weight!"
