Actress GWYNETH PALTROW has hit out at the pressure put on female stars to stay thin in Hollywood.

The blonde SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE star was outraged at recent articles saying that she and sexy LORD OF THE RINGS babe LIV TYLER were fat.

The beauty says, “In the NEW YORK POST there was this article that said that I was getting fat from my macrobiotic diet. It said I was retaining water and that my body was no longer as good as it was.

“I read an article on Liv Tyler where they were suggesting that she was not thin enough. That disgusts me. She is a beautiful, talented, young, working actress.

“Imagine how women who might be just 10 pounds overweight must feel. I’m sick of studios and corporations trying to make us feel bad about ourselves.”

I wish I had the actual clippings of it because it had some pictures. Anyways, nice bit of info on the man behind the cool digital scenes. [More]

Annatar The Fair writes: And so the LOTR hype starts again (when did it stop? -Xo). And there are fantastic new characters coming, including Treebeard, leader of the Ents. Voiced by John Rhys-Davies, Treebeard will be a combination of animatronics and CG. “He’s going to be incredible,” Billy ‘Pippin’ Boyd revealed exclusively to Empire. “Somebody said it was the biggest animatronic ever. It lifted us up 30 feet, and it was such a hassle getting down that Dom (“Merry” Monaghan) and myself wouldn’t come down for tea breaks. They’d just pass up a cup and a biscuit. And 20 minutes later, everyone would come traipsing back in.” Boyd laughs. “There! The first anecdote from The Two Towers!”
