Actor Ruth Wilson has claimed that Hollywood puts pressure on female actors to have cosmetic procedures. Although Wilson, 41, hasn’t got any enhancements, she admits to being afraid that not having any treatments could leave her looking older than her peers, an international portal reported. She told an international daily, “As an actress, everyone does it. Very few resist. I haven’t done anything yet. But it’s in my head. Do you decide not to, and therefore potentially look older than your peers? Or do you just give in?”
Wilson admitted that the pressure can sometimes be maddening. “Why can’t a woman age on screen? Or age, full stop? In 200 years, people will be looking back at images of today’s women, and go, ‘What were they doing? What is that? They’re blowing [their] face and lips up.’ Yet, it’s a multi-billion-dollar industry. And women are part of that industry, perpetuating this ‘empowerment’,” she stated.
