Norah Jones told to drop a few pounds

Norah Jones revealed to British Glamour that she was told to lose weight for her first movie role. "I probably shouldn't say this," the Grammy-winning singer told the mag. "But I was asked to lose a few pounds. First I got really mad, then I got nervous, thinking, 'Oh no! I'm fat!' It was a horrible thing to hear but I understand the game. I was just amazed that it really was an issue, and it made me have a lot of sympathy for really skinny actresses... But then, I still think they need to eat a cheeseburger." Jones breaks onto the big screen in the upcoming My Blueberry Nights, co-starring Jude Law and Natalie Portman.
