Behind all the glitz and glam of celebrity life, a deep rooted evil lies. During an interview, actress Emma Thompson has recently opened up about the severe problem of anorexia in Hollywood and fans are shocked.

Emma Thompson revealed that the movie was "Brideshead Revisited" during filming the producer asked the actress to lose some weight even when she didn't need to. Emma was annoyed to hear this and she threatened to leave the set if she finds anyone demanding unnecessary weight loss from the actress.

"It is evil what is going on out there and it is getting worse," Mail Online quoted the Emma Thompson. "The French fashion industry said they would get rid of size zero and they didn't, not only they didn't but it continued."

The actress also shared her thoughts on ageism and mentioned the problem doesn't exist only in Hollywood. Emma Thompson admitted that she never moved to LA because every time she visits the city she feels extremely self-conscious about her looks.

The actress mentioned imagining everyone in LA saying to her that she is fat and old to live there. Emma Thompson added that LA is 'mad and hostile' and she finds it too strange to live there.

According to Washington Post, during the same interview on Skavlan, Emma Thompson also revealed how she once said no to Donald Trump. Back in 1998, while she was filming "Primary Colours", Trump called her trailer.

Upon receiving the call, Donald Trump offered Emma Thompson to stay at the Trump Towers while filming the movie. The actress was shocked and promptly refused his romantic gestures.
