Penelope Cruz offended after being asked about her ‘ugly feet’

IT was a career low point for an American TV presenter after she asked Penelope Cruz about her ‘ugly feet’.

NBC newscaster Savannah Guthrie was left red-faced when she asked the ex-ballerina whether it was true that she had nasty hooves during an interview for Cruz’s new film Zoolander.

The shocked actress, 41, immediately took offence, and set the record straight immediately.

“No, no, no, no, I haven’t said that,” the star responded. “I’m OK with my feet.”

“But when you’re a ballet dancer, you lose your toenails, you get used to throwing them away.”
