Eiza Gonzalez claims to have not been able to land film roles for a surprising reason!
In an interview with InStyle that was published on Monday, the Baby Driver star claimed she’s been rejected for roles she tried out for, but not because of lack of talent or anything like that! No, the 34-year-old says she’s missed out on some opportunities because she’s just “too pretty”:
“I remember being [told for] so many projects, ‘She’s too pretty for the role. She’s too hot for the role.'”
Wow!
That is… a claim. Man, even if that were true, why would you EVER say this out loud in an interview?! Not only that, she’s complaining about it! For real!

She went on to express how shocked she was because other beautiful actresses like Margot Robbie, weren’t having the same problems as her:
“Then I’d just be like, ‘What is Margot Robbie? She’s the hottest, most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in my life!'”
The Ambulance star says being told she was so pretty all the time gave her an “identity crisis.” She even thought about going to some wild lengths to try and retaliate against the rejection:
“I had an identity crisis for a very long time. I was like, ‘Do I shave my head? Do I make myself less attractive? Do I make myself more attractive? Do I not dress super-hot or do I dress super-hot or do I cover myself all the time?'”
The Mexican star has worked steadily since her English language debut in the From Dusk Till Dawn TV series and will appear next month in Guy Ritchie‘s upcoming action flick The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare with Henry Cavill. So clearly she made the right move by not employing any extreme measures.
We just wish the most beautiful people in the world didn’t have to face such tough choices — and so much rejection! Oof. Sad.
