Melanie Lynskey has spoken candidly about the body shaming she’s faced in her career and revealed she felt pressured to lose weight while filming Coyote Ugly.
Lynskey, 44, who played the character Gloria in the 2000 movie, opened up about the “ridiculous” pressure placed on her and costar Piper Perabo to look a certain way while filming during a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter. Lynskey recalled that all of the actresses had a “regimen they had to go on” and that she received “really intense feedback” about her appearance from those on set.
