The trouble with beauty


Evangeline Lilly struggled with her beauty as a teenager, after being a tomboy for most of her childhood. "I spent many nights crying myself to sleep wishing I was ugly because of the way men leered and disrespected me, because they assumed about my mental capacity or my willingness based on the way I looked," the Canadian star says. After working as a waitress to pay her university tuition, Lilly said, "I felt like a whore. You feel like they're paying to stare at your ass when you're walking away from the table."
