Actress Carey Mulligan has said that she doesn't want to be too thin because she thinks it sets a "bad example".

Speaking to Elle magazine, the actress said that she had previously dieted but didn't want to do it again.

She said: "It was not fun. I look back and it's really, really not worth depriving yourself."

"I was very thin at the beginning of 'An Education' and I remember the scene where I'm dancing and you can see my spine. Yuck."

"I would never want to be so thin that someone would think it was a good idea to be thin, and make themselves miserable... I would never want to set a bad example, basically."
