· Evangeline Lilly paranoid about looks    ·    June 21st, 2006

Evangeline Lilly covers up the mirrors in her house - because she is paranoid about how she looks.

The stunning actress, who plays one-time fugitive Kate in hit US series ‘Lost’, says since starring in the hugely popular show she has become extremely self-conscious over her appearance and constantly finds flaws with her body.

She told Britain’s Reveal magazine: “I’ve never felt so stressed or conscious of how I look. If you walk into my bathroom, the mirror is covered by a sarong. I just want to forget what I look like when I get home.”

It is not the first time Lilly has confessed she is paranoid about her figure.

The brunette actress, who is dating her ‘Lost’ co-star Dominic Monaghan, revealed she “kicked up a real fuss” when show bosses asked her to shoot a semi-nude scene in the first episode of the series.

She was so adamant she wouldn’t strip for the cameras she demanded the script be re-written.

Lilly said at the time: “When we came to shoot the scene it had been re-written for me to be in a tank top and underwear and I really appreciate that they made it more modest.”
