Movie star Kate Beckinsale fears rowing with her four-year-old daughter LILY because she worries the tot will turn her new action figure into a voodoo doll.

The actress is far from fond of her first immortalisation in plastic - from the movie Underworld, claiming it looks like "a slightly tense version" of herself, and she's terrified her daughter will use it against her.

She explains, "My child is in the very odd position where she's got an action figure of me. I just get frightened I'll have a really bad pain in my neck and go home and find a pin in it, because she'll voodoo me.

"It looks like a female impersonator of me - like a not beautiful drag version, because there's not much make-up on it. It frightens me."
