'People who say they can't lose weight are lying': Mila Kunis on how losing 20lb for Black Swan changed her views on body image

By Daily Mail Reporter





She shed an astonishing 20lb from her already slim frame to play a ballerina in Oscar-winning movie Black Swan.



And now Mila Kunis has admitted losing the weight has entirely changed her views on body image.



The 27-year-old actress, a self-confessed 'foodie', said she was stunned with how much her body was capable of changing.



To the point: Mila Kunis revealed her views on body image changed after she had to lose 20lb for Oscar-winning movie Black Swan





She told the new issue of Britain's Glamour magazine: 'I don’t think I ever fully realised what a human body is capable of doing. But I think I was also, in a beautiful way, incredibly naïve.



'I believed I could do anything. I never for one moment thought that I couldn’t do it. I believe in hard work. In self-drive and self-worth.



'I'm a huge foodie, I love food. But when people say, ‘I can’t lose weight’, no no no, you can. Your body can do everything and anything, you just have to want to do it.'

Mila, who was born in Chernivtsi in the Ukrainian SSR, also revealed she finds it difficult to accept that people find her attractive - despite the fact she won Spike TV’s Guys’ Choice award this summer for the Holy Grail of Hot.



Talking about the award, Mila laughed: 'It’s insane. Listen, I couldn’t be happier to get any of this, because I think it’s hysterical and it makes all my friends laugh.



'If somebody finds me attractive, God bless them, I think it’s fantastic.'



Mila added the reason she is able to stay so refreshingly grounded in the movie industry is because she stays positive.

She said: 'I’m in an industry based on rejection. On negativity and let-downs.



'People are rejected every single day purely based on opinion, about who’s a good actress, who’s a bad actress, who’s pretty, who’s ugly, who’s fat, who’s skinny.



'So why go there? You have to have a positive outlook. Otherwise you’re in a very dark place.'



Mila can next be seen in this summer's hottest romcom, Friends With Benefits, alongside Justin Timberlake.

But despite reports the actors are more than friends, Mila was quick to scotch the rumours.



The pair raised eyebrows in June when she and Justin, 30, presented an award to Robert Pattinson by sending up rumours that they were a couple with Justin cupping Mila’s breasts as she gripped his crotch.



They then furthered relationship reports when they were spotted on an apparent date in London last week.



However, Mila insisted the claim was 'an unfortunate thing that comes with the circumstances, but there’s no truth to it whatsoever.'

She added: 'Being single, I find myself not being able to be in a room with a man without, the next day, I’m dating that man. That happened for a solid six months (after Black Swan) when maybe - maybe! - I’d been in the same room.'



But Mila did say of her co-star: 'He’s incredibly funny, we laughed a lot on set,' saying of the MTV skit: 'We thought it was hilarious and we were promoting an R-rated comedy.'



As for what she's looking for in a man - it's humour rather than looks.

She said: 'Humour is an amazing quality to have. I like sarcasm, satire, self-deprecating humour. But I also think there’s something to be said for not looking for anything and being pleasantly surprised.'



And despite the fact that Mila was catapulted into super-stardom through her role in Black Swan, she remains logical about how much her profession affects the rest of the world.



She explained: 'No one’s curing cancer in this industry, remember? It’s not changing the world. It’s just entertainment, an art, a form of escapism. My friends and family are my number one thing in life, but you need a healthy balance.



'It’s not to say my goal in life is to have a family and kids, and let that be my number one priority either.



'This is a phenomenal job, but the most important lesson I’ve learnt is that you never want to let your only source of happiness come from something that’s so filled with uncertainty.'

I couldn't be happier being a sex symbol, says Mila Kunis

Washington, Aug 9 : 'Friends with Benefits' actress Mila Kunis has revealed that she is really happy being called a sex symbol

The 27-year-old star, who rose to fame with her roles in 'Black Swan' and 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall', is surprised by all the male attention and admiration she has received.

"It's insane. Listen, I couldn't be happier to get any of this, because I think it's hysterical and it makes all my friends laugh. If somebody finds me attractive, God bless them, I think it's fantastic," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

However, Kunis also feels that there are some drawbacks to fame, with one being the amount of fake rumours that circulate about her love life.

Mila Kunis slept while shooting with Timberlake

London, Aug 6 : Actress Mila Kunis says she dozed off while shooting a lovemaking scene with "Friends With Benefits" co-star Justin Timberlake.

"Towards the very end, we were shooting the lovemaking scene at his father's house. It was like an 18-hour-long day and 17 hours into it, I was laying there and...and I was like: 'I'm just going to close my eyes for a minute'.

"Next thing I know, you're like: 'OK, we're done!' I literally took a nap!" said Kunis.

Their chemistry on-screen is undeniable and rumours have been running rife that Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis are an item in real life.

But despite their camp insisting they are just friends, it seems something more is going on, judging by their behaviour last night as they dined out with friends.

Mila and Justin, who are in London for the European leg of their promotional tour for Friends With Benefits were spied acting extremely loved up as they ate at the upmarket eatery Nobu.

An onlooker dining at the Japanese restaurant in Berkley Square told MailOnline that the pair were sat next to each other, despite being with a large group of friends and were seen acting really ‘cute together.’

Mila Kunis had butt double in her latest flick

Actress Mila Kunis has revealed that she had a butt double in the movie 'Friends With Benefits'.

Kunis, 27, revealed during an interview with Ryan Seacrest that the reason she had a body double was because she wasn't ready to show off her bottom on film.

"I showed side boob and I figured I can't just give everything all away at once. I gotta let it all out in little pieces here and there," Radar Online quoted her as saying.

She revealed that an audition was held to find the one lady whose butt resembled hers.

"These young ladies came in and they were in a casting room, the director and the casting director and my makeup artists and these lovely women had to show us their derriere and we chose the one that resembled my body the most without looking like it is fake," she added.

Sexiest Mila Kunis attends marine ball with luckiest Sgt. Scott Moore

The sexiest American actress and voice artist Mila Kunis, 27, agrees to accompany U.S. Marine Sgt. Scott Moore to Corps Ball leaving lots of people to envy him as they are also dreaming about going to date with Kunis. Sergeant Moore, of the 3rd Battalion, 2nd Marines in Musa Qala, Afghanistan has thus become the talk of the town. The Ukranian born star has just been asked out by Sergeant Moore via YouTube last Thursday.

The invite showed a sunglasses clad Sergeant Moore walking along the arid dessert of Musa Qala asking 27-year-old celebrity to be his date for the Marine Corps ball. Fortunately, the actress won’t have to travel to Afghanistan for a date with Sgt. Moore. He’s attached to the 3rd Battalion 2nd Marines which is based at Camp Lejuene in North Carolina. Fittingly, his Marine Corps Ball will be held in Greensville, North Carolina, according to his video. The big day is November 18.

In the video Moore says “Hey Mila, this is Sgt. Moore, but you can call me Scott, I just want to take a moment out of my day to invite you to the Marine Corps Ball on November 18 in Greenville, N.C., with yours truly. Take a second, think about it, get back to me.” And when FOX411 asked Kunis about the invitation over the weekend, her “Benefits” co-star, Justin Timberlake, assured Moore he was going to make it happen.

“Have you seen this? Have you heard about this? You need to do it for your country,” Timberlake asked Kunis excitedly, before sending out a direct message to Moore. “I’m going to work on this, man. This needs to go down.” After questioning her publicist if she knew about the invitation, the clearly flattered 27-year-old actress agreed. “I’ll go, I’ll do it for you,” she said, turning to Timberlake. “Are you going to come?” “They don’t want me! They want you,” Timberlake responded. “You need to do it for your country.” At last she confirmed, "I'll do it."

So It is Sgt. Moore who will turn his dream true if everything goes well.
