Anya Taylor-Joy is one of the hottest rising stars in all of Hollywood right now.

However, even though she has amazed with her talent and her beauty, she feels "ugly" and says that she even thinks her face is weird.
Speaking to the media, Anya Taylor-Joy said: “I have never felt and I don't think I have ever considered myself pretty. I don't think she's beautiful enough to be in movies. It sounds pathetic and my boyfriend warns me that people will think I'm dumb for saying these things, but I think I look weird.” In this case, we'll have to disagree with her.
In a recent interview, the actress also revealed that she doesn't even like looking at herself in the mirror: "My face is weird," she said.

Also, the pressure from her classmates was harsh during the school years. “The kids just didn't understand me at all. I used to lock myself in the lockers. I was so lonely as a child. I felt so isolated that I created this story in my head about being alone was bad, being alone was bad.” And because of that, she said she spent a lot of time at school crying in bathrooms.
Anya also said that when it comes to the movies she has starred in, "I don't go to the cinema to see my own movie." Instead, she said that she usually watches them before they premiere. "The beauty of being in your own skin is that you don't have to look at your own face."
In fact, during the filming of "Emma", the adaptation of Jane Austen's novel, she was about to quit because she didn't think she was pretty enough: "I really had a panic attack at Emma because I thought, 'I'm the first Emma ugly and I can't do this,' because the first line of the movie is, 'I'm pretty, smart and rich.
But despite Anya's insistence that "I never have and I think I never will consider myself beautiful," her unique ethereal appearance and her incredible talent prove otherwise.
