Alex Kingston Refuses to Lose Weight


Former ER star ALEX KINGSTON refuses to lose weight to conform to Hollywood expectations. The English actress is nervous about returning to Tinseltown now she has finished London play ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST, as she fears she won't get work because she won't diet down. Kingston tells, "There is a lot of pressure and it's the fascism of beauty. "I'm going to LA now, back home to be a jobbing actor, and it will be very interesting to see what becomes of me over there, because I won't succumb to that. I don't want to have to lose 25 pounds (11 kilograms) just to have a job."

    I remember when Kate Winslet declared the same exact thing. Lo' and behold, she dropped the weight and Alex will, too.
