Diane Kruger was `manipulative` with men

Los Angeles: Actress Diane Kruger has confessed she used to be slightly manipulative in her past relationships.

The 37-year-old says playing crafty bride-to-be Isabelle in French film `A Perfect Plan`, out in Britain this June, has made her realise she`s been guilty of using her womanly charms to her advantage in the past when it comes to men. "Maybe (I`m]) not like Isabelle, but I`ve certainly been guilty in the past of being slightly manipulative when it comes to boyfriends. I think, as women, we know instinctively how to push men`s buttons,” contactmusic.com quoted her as saying. "We know which fights to pick and which to leave. And we know that if we pick a certain type of dress, we`ll get a certain type of reaction,” she added.
