Emily Ratajkowski quit acting because she felt “like a piece of meat”.
The Blurred Lines star was a child actress before shooting to fame as a model. But she went back to her roots with a part in 2014 film Gone Girl opposite Ben Affleck only to leave out of Hollywood a few years later.
She has now revealed she stepped away from films because she struggled to find any good parts and was left feeling mistreated.
In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, she explained: “I didn’t feel like, ‘Oh, I’m an artist performing and this is my outlet.’ I felt like a piece of meat who people were judging, saying, ‘Does she have anything else other than her [breasts]?’”
Ratajkowski’s other film roles included parts in the 2015 Entourage movie, We Are Your Friends in 2015 and in 2018 comedy I Feel Pretty.
