Zooey Deschanel’s heavy bangs and nerd girl ‘a-dork-able’ shtick cover Marie Claire May 2012. It’s a varied interview, but I’m going to skip right to a few parts that are blowing up following the news vacuum that is the Easter weekend.
Deschanel admits not wanting kids and talks about losing weight as a teenager because she was ‘chubby.’ In the interview, like Jon Hamm/ Jennifer Westfeldt and flaky Jennifer Aniston, Deschanel says she doesn’t feel compelled to arbitrarily push a baby out of her just because she has the plumbing to do so. Someone alert Gwyneth Paltrow! I like that Deschanel doesn’t hedge her words, she’s all ‘Nah, babies aren’t for me.’ Although, I’m a little annoyed with the qualifier that she ‘likes’ kids as though the child-free do not and as though getting pregnant has anything to do with liking kids. Then the weight thing, I think Deschanel compensated for her weight by over-egging her personality.
