Lizabeth Scott Hits Out At 'Scruffy' Stars

21 April 2008 5:14 AM, PDT | From wenn.com | See recent WENN news

Forties film noir star Lizabeth Scott has hit out at the "scruffy" celebrities of today, like supermodel Kate Moss - insisting they look like "vagrants".

Scott, who is famed for roles alongside Humphrey Bogart, Kirk Douglas and Elvis Presley, believes that stars have an obligation to be stylish and sophisticated as they are role models to teenage girls.

And the 85-year-old targets Moss as one of the worst offenders.

She says, "I saw Kate Moss and her new beau all over the cover on the news-stand and thought they looked like vagrants; so scruffy and grubby - just awful.

"I'd like to see Miss Moss smarten up her act. Doesn't she know young women look up to her? She would have lasted 10 seconds under the Hollywood studio system."

But Scott has kind words for a handful of A-listers who do meet her style criteria - including Victoria Beckham, Dita Von Teese and Paris Hilton.

She adds, "Two of the three might not be the sharpest tools in the box, but they are glamorous and always impeccably turned out."
