Naomie Harris couldn’t eat or drink at the Golden Globes because her dress was so tight.
The 40-year-old actress looked sensational in a Armani Prive gown at the annual awards bash in Beverly Hills, California, earlier this month – but has confessed to feeling extremely uncomfortable in her outfit.
She shared: "I was very glad to get out of it! It was like a corset, I could barely breathe!"
Naomie was nominated for the Best Supporting Actress gong at the ceremony for her role in ‘Moonlight’, but admitted she couldn’t even toast her achievement because her eye-catching outfit was so tight.
She told ITV’s ‘Lorraine’: "I wasn’t allowed to eat or drink form 12 o’clock as I couldn’t go to the toilet in that dress!"
And the Hollywood star – who ultimately lost out to Viola Davis in the Best Supporting Actress category – revealed her discomfort started long before she posed for photographs on the red carpet.
Naomie explained: "I got carried to the car by the man who made that dress and he lay me flat so I wouldn’t crease the dress!"
Despite her disappointment at the Golden Globes, Naomie is hotly tipped to be in the running for an Academy Award, and the actress admitted she is keen to continue to take on challenging roles in the coming years.
Naomie, who plays the part of a drug addict in ‘Moonlight’, said: "I just want to play completely different roles and tell stories that see each other in a different light and the word in a different light."
However, the health-conscious star did take issue with her casting in ‘Moonlight’.
She joked: "It’s so strange, I don’t see how they saw me and thought ‘crack addiction’. I’m a health nut, I don’t even drink coffee!"
