BEIJING, Jan. 2 -- Penelope Cruz says being called sexy is "boring".
The "Volver" actress says she is tired of all the attention surrounding her
looks and would much rather be admired for her acting talents.
Penelope, 32, said:"I don't pay attention to people calling me sexy. It
makes me nervous when people start using labels. It's boring."
"I don't understand why people tend to typecast you."
Penelope's former love Matthew McConaughey, whom she met while filming
action adventure "Sahara," recently said she deserves to win an Oscar for her
performance in her latest film "Volver."
Matthew, who is still a close friend of Penelope, said: "She is going
to get an Oscar nomination for 'Volver', or she should. She is so excited about
that film. I really hope she gets the recognition she deserves."
