Evan Rachel Wood Keeps the Gloves On

Evan Rachel Wood keeps the white gloves on at a special screening of her new musical romance Across The Universe on Thursday at NYC’s Chelsea West Theater. The film opens in theaters nationwide next Friday, Sept 21. Boyfriend Marilyn Manson waited on the sidelines during the screening.

Recently Evan talked about paparazzi being on her trail all the time: “I don’t buy it when people say it [being harassed by photographers] is not their fault, because there is a way to control it. My taste of celebrity has convinced me that I wasn’t built for it. Maybe it was the way I was brought up, but it is really terrifying for me when a bunch of people are staring at me or chasing me. Just the other night, people were jumping on the car and banging on the windows. I don’t think people can imagine how scary that is. It is like a strange dream. It becomes animalistic to me, and that is creepy. I try my best to stay out of it. It was never why I became an actress at all. It was not what I was raised for, and it is not for me.”
