Penelope Cruz dodges awkward question about her ‘ugly feet’ during Today Show interview
Penelope Cruz was left unimpressed when asked about a certain part of her anatomy during a recent interview.
The A-Lister, who stars in Zoolander 2, didn’t seem too happy when she was questioned about her ‘ugly feet’ during an awkward exchange on NBC’s Today Show.
Clearly taken aback, Cruz looked shocked when presenter Savannah Guthrie asked her:
“I don't even know how I feel about this… I think you said it, that you, despite what you look like... you've said you have ugly feet.”
Cruz responded: “No, no, no, no. I haven’t said that. I’m okay. I’m okay with my feet. I haven’t said that.”
Instead of moving swiftly on, Guthrie tried to explain herself, saying: “Because you were a dancer.”

The star, who studied classical ballet before she became an actress, added: “When you're a ballet dancer, you lose your toenails.
“You get used to throwing them away. You don't even feel it anymore.”
Getting back to the current state of her feet, Cruz added: “I think they are normal.”
Cruz stars opposite Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson in the brand new Zoolander sequel.
