'People who say they can't lose weight are lying': Mila Kunis on how losing 20lb for Black Swan changed her views on body image ‎

by - May 05, 2024

   She shed an astonishing 20lb from her already slim frame to play a ballerina in Oscar-winning movie Black Swan.And now Mila Kunis has admitted losing the weight has entirely changed her views on body image.The 27-year-old actress, a self-confessed 'foodie', said she was stunned with how much her body was capable of changing.She told the new issue of Britain's Glamour magazine: 'I don’t think I ever fully realised what a human body is capable of doing. But I think I was also, in a beautiful way, incredibly naïve.



'I believed I could do anything. I never for one moment thought that I couldn’t do it. I believe in hard work. In self-drive and self-worth.'I'm a huge foodie, I love food. But when people say, "I can’t lose weight", no no no, you can. Your body can do everything and anything, you just have to want to do it.'Mila, who was born in Chernivtsi in the Ukrainian SSR, also revealed she finds it difficult to accept that people find her attractive - despite the fact she won Spike TV’s Guys’ Choice award this summer for the Holy Grail of Hot.


Talking about the award, Mila laughed: 'It’s insane. Listen, I couldn’t be happier to get any of this, because I think it’s hysterical and it makes all my friends laugh.'If somebody finds me attractive, God bless them, I think it’s fantastic.'Mila added the reason she is able to stay so refreshingly grounded in the movie industry is because she stays positive.Mila, who was born in Chernivtsi in the Ukrainian SSR, also revealed she finds it difficult to accept that people find her attractive - despite the fact she won Spike TV’s Guys’ Choice award this summer for the Holy Grail of Hot.Talking about the award, Mila laughed: 'It’s insane.

'If somebody finds me attractive, God bless them, I think it’s fantastic.'Mila added the reason she is able to stay so refreshingly grounded in the movie industry is because she stays positive.But despite reports the actors are more than friends, Mila was quick to scotch the rumours.The pair raised eyebrows in June when she and Justin, 30, presented an award to Robert Pattinson by sending up rumours that they were a couple with Justin cupping Mila’s breasts as she gripped his crotch.





They then furthered relationship reports when they were spotted on an apparent date in London last week.However, Mila insisted the claim was 'an unfortunate thing that comes with the circumstances, but there’s no truth to it whatsoever.'She added: 'Being single, I find myself not being able to be in a room with a man without, the next day, I’m dating that man. That happened for a solid six months (after Black Swan) when maybe - maybe! - I’d been in the same room.'



But Mila did say of her co-star: 'He’s incredibly funny, we laughed a lot on set,' saying of the MTV skit: 'We thought it was hilarious and we were promoting an R-rated comedy.'As for what she's looking for in a man - it's humour rather than looks.
