more Although she played a plane crash survivor trapped on an island in “Lost” for six seasons, Evangeline Lilly still always looked good
and had great hair. It turns out that the 33-year-old actress has been struggling with her attractiveness for most of her life. "I spent many nights crying myself to sleep wishing I was ugly because of the way men leered and disrespected me, because they assumed things about my mental capacity or my physical willingness based on the way I look,” she told
