"This is me coming home from an audition for King Kong where I was told I was too 'ugly' for the role. It was a momentous moment for me.
That ill-intentioned opinion could have shattered my dreams of becoming an actress or forced me to pull myself together and believe in myself.
I took a breath and said, 'I'm sorry you think I'm too ugly for your movie but yours is just an opinion out of thousands.' "To this day, I have 18 Oscar nominations."
