Jennifer Lopez Blames Her Media Image For Hampering Her Film Career
Jennifer Lopez believes her over-exposure in the media has prevented her from having a more diverse movie career.
The 36-year-old Latina beauty found it easier to convince directors of her suitability for a role when she was an unknown - leading to parts in films including Out Of Sight and Oliver Stone's U-Turn.
However, in recent years stories of her diva-like demands and romances have made it harder for film-makers to distinguish between fact and fiction.
Lopez says, "In the beginning, I was a blank slate. I got to work with all these great directors because I was just a girl who came in there and did well in the audition.
"Then when I became famous, I was being offered movies that I could star in but that's all I was being offered.
"When I think I should be seeing the big directors, they don't even consider me.
"They see me as a sexy singer and too much in the media."
