5. She Had To Wear A Brace During Her Teens To Correct A Spinal Condition
Though she may look like a picture of health, that wasn't always the case for the actress. At the age of 15, she was diagnosed with scoliosis, a condition which causes curvature of the spine, requiring her to wear a plastic brace from her chest to her hips for a whole two years in order to straighten her spine out. On those two years, she said, "It's like wearing a tacky, disgusting, plastic corset for 18 hours a day. In the beginning, it was hard to eat or breathe and I had to give up cross-country running. But I needed to have it to realign my spine." It all worked out for the best in the end, clearly.
