AMANDA SEYFRIED EMBARKS ON RAW FOOD DIET TO STAY SUPER-SKINNY

Amanda SeyfriedAMANDA Seyfried has embarked on a strict diet of raw food in the hope it’ll help her stay in shape.

The Mamma Mia! star admits she hates having to worry so much about keeping her weight under control.

“It’s intense,” Amanda told Esquire magazine of her raw food-diet. “And sort of awful. Yesterday for lunch? Spinach. Just spinach. Spinach and some seeds.”

The 24-year-old — who is currently dating British actor Dominic Cooper – has previously admitted she worries that gaining weight will prevent her from landing top movie roles.

“If I didn’t run and work out, there’s no way I would be this thin,” she told Britain’s Glamour magazine earlier this month. “But I have to stay in shape because I’m an actress.

“It’s f**ked up and it’s twisted, but I wouldn’t get the roles otherwise. If I’d been a bit bigger, I don’t think they would have cast me for Mamma Mia!”

The star — who locks lips with Julianne Moore in new movie Chloe — has also admitted she’s uneasy with the Hollywood lifestyle.

“I sacrificed six years in Los Angeles,” she said. “I did my job out there. I made the contacts and did the work I had to do. But I came here at 18. I’m out of here at 24, and I feel lucky it wasn’t longer.

“I bought an apartment in New York but I can’t move in until April because it needs renovating. I was hoping to move there now. But it’s OK. It’s worth it.

“And I have my relationship overseas too. New York’s just so much easier than Los Angeles as I’m always going to London. It’s nice to be closer — even if it’s still a long flight. 11 hours is different from seven.”

    What a sad state of affairs when an actress has to starve herself to keep in contention for big lead roles.

    Gosh what an airhead…she is so concerned about her appearance. She’s beautiful the way she is, even if she gains a few pounds. But Hollywood refuses to see that. Pitiful state of mind, what pressure will do to you.

    It sucks that we live in a society that puts so much pressure on women to be “thin” and couch it in terms of them being “healthy”. Gaunt isn’t healthy.

    Embark on a raw diet – That’s great, but do it for other reasons than trying to land a sweet role.

    I think you should stop obsessing about your body and take some acting classes.That is how you will improve yourself in order to get better roles.Do you really think Meryl Streep sits around worrying what she weighs? Of course not! Because she knows that what she has,what makes her a great actress goes deeper than that. You missed a great opportunity to learn from her when you were on the set of Mamma Mia. (not a great film,unfortunately)Why didn’t you ask her for advice? Too busy weighing yourself?
