Beckinsale cuts into "shallow" nip 'n' tuckers

Actress Kate Beckinsale has branded those who undergo cosmetic surgery as "insecure" and "shallow".

The 33-year-old Underworld star told the Sunday Express: "Nothing bothers me except the connotations of being a person who would have plastic surgery."

"That implies a kind of insecurity, shallowness and thoughtlessness that I don't feel applies to me very much," added the actress, currently starring alongside Adam Sandler in Click.

Whilst filming the comedy, Beckinsale had to endure lashings of make-up to make her appear older - much to her chagrin:

"I didn't love it. It was really hard sitting in makeup for six hours and then ending up looking worse than you are in real life. I hated looking old."
