Lucy Hale: Hollywood's Image of Women Is 'Terrifying'

Cosmopolitan

Lucy Hale's thoughts on women in Hollywood seem to contradict this 'Cosmo' cover.

Don't let the sexy Cosmopolitan magazine cover fool you about how Lucy Hale really feels about Hollywood's representation of women -- though it may seem a bit contradictory.

The Pretty Little Liars star is seen in a barely-there mini-dress and a sexed-up hairstyle for her Cosmo shoot, but says she has a problem with the "superficial image Hollywood sells to young women."

"[Pretty Little Liars] is about how we look too. That’s terrifying sometimes because you’re breaking out or you feel gross and you still have to be in front of the camera," the 25-year-old singer/actress told the women's magazine. "We’ll post pictures on Instagram and people will be like, ‘Y’all are so flawless.’ Little do they know it’s fake hair, fake eyelashes, and a good filter. Little girls see that and think they have to be like that."
