Emma Thompson believes that all young actresses are under constant pressure to look thin.

The 54-year-old actress told a UK publication that young actresses are all being photo-shopped in advertisements, which gets difficult for them as they get pictures of themselves looking perfect, Contactmusic.com reported.

The 'Sense and Sensibility' star thinks the pressure is terrible for their self-esteem as they have to be a specific model size, and if they go on to the red carpet, they all have to walk and dress like models.
