Hollywood actress Selma Blair hated having to pile on the pounds for her latest role in TV comedy Kath+Kim- because her on-screen wardrobe was so tight, her clothes cut into her thighs.
The 36-year-old recently wrapped filming for the U.S. adaptation of the hit Australian show, but admits she struggled to enjoy herself on set when she was forced to squeeze into her character's tight-fitting clothes.
She says, "(It was) unpleasant. I'd have lacerations on my body from my shorts being so tight. They'd yell 'Cut!' and people would come over with a bathrobe because I was so embarrassed about the flab rolling over. It was so ugly. That and my double chin."
And Blair was constantly trying to avoid seeing photos of herself in character in the press - because the brightly-coloured outfits were so cringe-worthy.
She adds: "The character's fashion sense is really horrific. I'm wearing a lot of bright clothes and I don't wear anything except black and white in real life. I'm wearing orange and blue together. It's horrible. And wedge flip-flops all the time, toe rings, and an anklet. I have long hair, too, so I have these horrifying extensions and these long nails. It's so embarrassing."
The star has now slimmed down again, but insists it was a hard task: "I've lost the weight but it's difficult to get it off as you get older."

Flab and double chin you say?
I just love what kind of message this is sending to awkward teenagers that's already miserable about their bodies.
*Goes back to chugging down ice cream, and not even Selma Blair can stop me from that*

Now don't forget she complained how the shorts were cutting into her thighs. I mean kudos for her if she thinks anorexic is great. But what she looks in that pic is NOT fat. Kinda goes along with the new stuff coming from the Desperate Housewife gang. From People Magazine's website: This is Felicity Huffman talking about Eva Longoria Parker "Eva Longoria Parker’s Desperate Housewives costar, Felicity Huffman, is putting those pregnancy rumors to rest.
"She's just fat, that’s all there is to it!" Huffman, 45, joked to PEOPLE about Longoria Parker at Saturday's re-opening of the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles. " Nice! NO wonder why there are so many girls/women with complexes.
