London: Adding fuel to the pregnancy rumours, Oscar winning actress Penelope Cruz has announced that she wants to reduce the number of films she accepts.The star adopted a strict work ethics while training to be a ballerina and she carried that discipline into her acting career, refusing to take any time off for herself. But now she
agrees to star in projects she feels are special, Contactmusic
reported.
"It (working) was what I wanted to do. But now I feel differently. You get chronically tired. I don`t want to feel
like that. Growing up, learning classical ballet is a very
disciplined thing. A lot of my relationship to the world came
from the years I danced," Cruz said.
"If your feet are bleeding, you have to carry on dancing and smiling. You think it`s normal. Then you take that attitude to whatever your work is," the actress added.
Cruz`s admission comes amid reports she is expecting a baby with her boyfriend Javier Bardem.
She says over the last two years she has created "a much better equilibrium between work and time for my life. I can
rest, go travelling, have time to do nothing. Before I might
take 15 days off in a year and try to leave my BlackBerry in
my room to please my family.
"The turning point was when I realised I was measuring the years going by according to whatever the films were I was working on, the countries I was shooting in. I was a total workaholic. Now I can work, but I`m not on movie sets the whole year. I can say no until there is something I really
need to do," the actress said.
