JENNIFER JASON LEIGH: 'STOP WRITING ABOUT MY AGE'

Actress JENNIFER JASON LEIGH wants reporters to stop writing about her age - because it's stopping her from landing good roles. The 45-year-old believes the more people know about actors and actresses, the harder it becomes for them to take on different characters - particularly as they get older. She explains, "I don't think your career is over when you turn 40, but it doesn't help when people's ages are constantly written about. I think the more you demystify someone, the harder it is to believe they are someone else."
