Marlene Dietrich's daughter is very unhappy with the choice of Gwyneth Paltrow to play the silver screen legend in an upcoming biopic, saying she is too skinny for the part.

Maria Riva says that skinny actresses like Paltrow would never have been hired by the movie studios back in the day.

"Studios wouldn't have signed skinny women in my day. Marlene, Joan Crawford, Paulette Goddard - all of us were shapely. We were what men wanted to see - and gorgeous with it.

"I think Gwyneth will need some helpings of good old apple pie and plenty of ice-cream!"
