As the father of a daughter, I am concerned with body image, he said.

Pfeiffer politely answered: Well,okay.

Heres that appalling Michelle Pfeiffer moment in full.

The problem is, it ended up going six months, Pfeiffer continued.

I was starving by the end.

I was living on tomato soup and Marlboros.

Update:IndieWirefollowed up with Kornbluth about the weight question, and he defended his query.
