Michelle Pfeiffer Was Hungry

Michelle Pfeiffer scored the role of Elvira, the at-first reluctant wife of Tony, over many of Hollywood’s top actresses even though her biggest role at the time had been Grease 2. She truly sacrificed for the role.

“Did I feel hot? No, actually, I was hungry,” she said on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight in 2012. “I was playing a coke addict and I couldn’t eat. And by the end of it…it went long. You know, it was supposed to be probably a four month shoot and it — it stretched out to six months. And I was really hungry by the end of it.”

She was outstanding, but we’re sorry to hear that.
