Amy Poehler Talks Superficiality in Tinseltown | GossipCenter ...

It’s not exactly a secret that good-looking people tend to do better in showbiz, but Amy Poehler isn’t interested in playing the narcissistic game.


The “Parks and Recreation” actress explained, "In a shallow business, I just had to come to terms with being really OK with not being…symmetrical. You can either spend your life trying to be [perfect], and you can tweak and nip and tuck, and then be afraid to move your face."



"There's a line between feeling healthy, strong and sexy and feeling good about yourself, and being worried about how you measure up. Some days I wake up and I'm just like, 'All right, I'm feelin' really good,' and some days I loathe myself. Just like everyone else,” Poehler added.


"It's so funny because it doesn't matter what you do, whether you have your picture in a magazine or you don't, there are days where you're just feeling it and other days where you look at yourself and say, 'Oh my god, who is that old woman in the store window? Oh my god, it's me!'"


Thankfully, Amy’s mom and dad helped her to develop a healthy view of herself- "My parents encouraged me, and I did not have a mother who criticized me about what I looked like or wore. She just never told me that I looked fat, and there was never a huge focus on looks—now what that led to was really terribly documented high school!"
