Johansson, Knowles have good figures: Hathaway

Hollywood actress Anne HathawayHollywood actress Anne Hathaway has raved about Scarlett Johansson and Beyonce Knowles for their curvy figures and praised the pair as good role models for youngsters.

“The Devil Wears Prada” star has recently been lambasted for being too skinny, although the 27-year-old is adamant she is a "normal shape", reported contactmusic.com.

Hathaway has hailed Johansson, Knowles, and fellow actress Reese Witherspoon for projecting healthy body images at a time when super-slim is often seen as an ideal.

"I don't think its just Hollywood that gives out that message. As a society we put out these unrealistic body images to young women, ” Hathaway said.

She added: "I'm a normal shape and Scarlett Johansson is not a skinny girl. Beyonce Knowles looks after herself and has a beautiful body. While, Reese Witherspoon looks great."
