Evan Rachel Wood 'Felt Like Meat' During 'Vanity Fair' Young Hollywood Shoot in 2003
Evan Rachel Wood is speaking out to shed light on the experience of shooting Vanity Fair‘s Young Hollywood issue back in 2003.
The now 27-year-old actress was pictured alongside Amanda Bynes, Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen, Mandy Moore, Hilary Duff, Alexis Bledel, Raven-Symone, and Lindsay Lohan for the now iconic shoot.
After a fan tweeted the photo of the magazine cover on Thursday (October 16), Evan shared her thoughts on the shoot.
“I was almost in tears after this shoot. They tried that dress on me, I wasnt comfortable but they told me there was no time,” Evan said.

I begged for pants. “@YouWonScience: @katiexwright I'm surprised any of you were allowed to wear pants, ridiculous”
