Singer turned actress Mariah Carey has described as "hideous" how she had to "de-glamorise" to play a "hard-knock" 80s social worker in the forthcoming film Precious.
By all accounts the film is a pretty good one and I'm pleased to see another high profile portrayal of a social worker.But did she really need to be de-glamorised so much and as she says herself, "drink some ugly juice"?
One US paper reports:
Precious is expected to open in the UK early next year."...her look in the film -- bad hair, dowdy clothes, even a faint mustache -- is as far from fabulous as she's ever been."
