Being an international supermodel has given Liz Hurley a dreadful fear of airports. "It was freakish, to suddenly see myself on posters and on the newsstand," Hurley told our film and movie critic Avon Proctor. "Everywhere I looked there are these huge posters of me.  They are in airports, at bus stops, all over town. When I lived in L.A., outside my apartment I could see this massive billboard, off Sunset Boulevard, of me covered in flowers sitting in a field in a pink cardie. I hated it. Then there were the huge billboards of me all over town, oh, it was so awful, and the hundreds of magazine covers of me, and the giant Vogue posters of me, pictures of me everywhere, oh, I don't want to talk about it, it upsets me so. There, you can see one right there, look at how big it is, do you like it?"
