Penelope slams teen mags


Penelope Cruz has spoken out against teen mags, saying they do nothing but promote unhealthy role models for young girls. "I would close down all those teenage magazines that encourage young girls to diet," the actress says. "Who says that to be pretty you have to be thin? Some people look better thin and some people don't. For example, I look better when I have three more kilos on me than I do now. The influence of those magazines on girls as young as thirteen is horrific. At thirteen you are still a child."
