The Frida star refuses to conform to Hollywood standards and refuses to work out, wear sunblock or starve herself for a role.

"I find it very boring to have to be skinny all the time. It bores me and makes me bitchy. And yet in Hollywood it's okay if you're a bitch - as long as you're skinny!" she was quoted by Contactmusic,as saying.

"A lot of these girls who spend so much time trying to be skinny - everyone is complaining about them. They don't make people feel good about themselves," she added.

Hayek believes the superficial standards are sending the wrong messages to people.
