WHY LOPEZ WANTS TO SHOOT HER TOE OFF
Actor-singer Jennifer Lopez of the On The Floor fame has revealed that she was offered director Adrian Lyne’s Unfaithful but she passed on the project as the script “wasn’t all the way there” for her. It was actor Diane Lane who later went on to star in the 2002 thriller, besides earning Best Actress nominations for a Golden Globe and an Academy Award as well.

Actor Margot Robbie has said that she still finds it hard not to doubt herself even though she’s one of the most successful in Hollywood.
Since rising to fame in The Wolf of Wall Street (2013), Robbie has taken on a wide range of roles including Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Bombshell (both 2019) — both of which earned her BAFTA nods and the former even won her an Oscar nomination. In 2019, she was ranked among the world’s highest-paid female actors. Earlier, Robbie won an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress for portraying disgraced figure skater Tonya Harding in the biopic I, Tonya (2017), which she had also produced.
Despite her success, she continues to have doubts about her place in the industry, reports aceshowbiz.com. Asked what she’d tell her younger self if she had the chance, Robbie told Britain’s Glamour magazine: “I would want to tell her, ‘You are actually good enough.’ The biggest thing for me was I had this impostor syndrome. I still get it sometimes and think everyone will realise, ‘How did you get here? Who let you in?’”
Robbie added that while she is proud of her back catalogue, she’s her own worst critic. “I don’t think there is one thing where I have said, ‘You have nailed it’. I always think, ‘You did what you set out to do but you missed the mark here and next time you are going to do it different,” she mused. should have known that Adrian Lyne was going to kill it, but I didn’t. Diane Lane was so perfect for it, and it was obviously meant to be her, but when I think about that... I want to literally, like, shoot my toe off. I do,” Lopez told Vanity Fair magazine.
The movie – which was about a marriage that goes dangerously awry when the wife indulges in an adulterous affair – despite mixed reviews was a box office hit. The film also starred Richard Gere and Olivier Martinez.
