Claire Danes recently sat down for an interview with People Magazine, where she talked about body shaming in Hollywood. The magazine quotes her as follows:
"I feel like my body is monitored and commented on infinitely more than my male counterpart. I remember a couple of Emmys ago, Lena Dunham and I were on the carpet together. We were singled out and criticized for having different body types – I was too skinny and she was too big. She is a dear friend of mine, and it made me angry because this is just how we are. We just take it for granted that it's acceptable and we really internalize that as normal and fine, and it's not. I was very anxious about my pregnancy because I was responsible for this huge show, and I didn't want to let anyone down at work, but I had this other major project of growing a person. I was mindful of what I was eating because I didn't want to look pregnant."
On bringing son Cyrus, 2 1/2, to the Homeland set:
"He loves it, a set is such a playground for a kid. He loved the ops room in the last season because he loved the lights and the screens and the levers to pull. That was also a bit of a joke – little tiny Cyrus in the ops room, saving the world from Armageddon!"
