Hilary Swank won an Oscar for her role as a transsexual in Boys Don't Cry and ever since people have gossiped about her sexuality. Gossip mongers have even gone as far to say she took her role in The Affair Of The Necklace to help her lose that masculine image. Hilary just laughs.

"I am a girl. Look at these five-inch heels. I love clothes and make-up. I didn't choose to do The Affair of the Necklace because I wanted to prove I was a girl. I did it because I loved the story and the idea that something that happened then could happen now."
