Actor Michael Shannon says the Oscars are just like the world's most exclusive prom now.

The 41-year-old actor believes Hollywood and the movie-making business is more obsessed with beauty now than at any other time in history, reported Female First.

"Filmmaking is a visual medium. It's motion pictures. So basically you're just a model that talks. Look at any actor nowadays - they're just models.

"Going to the Oscars is like going to the prom. Everybody dressed up. It used to be that when you went to the Oscars, you'd pick up something nice from the mall. Now it's this big hoo-haa," Shannon.
