Olivier MartinezOlivier Martinez hates it when people don’t look at the acting talent behind his chiselled good looks and his tabloid-friendly relationship with Kylie Minogue.

He told Nice-Matin newspaper in his native France: “I did not choose to be good-looking. I didn’t become an actor to be loved by women.”

“Anyone who looks at my CV closer will see that I’ve done classic work, too. People shouldn’t stop at the image they see in glossy magazines.”

“But it’s not too late to discover who I am. I’ve still got some surprises up my sleeve.”

That’s not to say he thinks it’s the same for all actors though: “I’m in a career where it’s difficult to see who’s who. You see great depth and stupidity at the same time sometimes.”
