| • | quit - "Actress Rachel Weisz on how a major birthday, fear of the big 'C' and a bag of lollipops helped her kick a nasty habit. Few women who smoke are eager to discuss their addiction with their nonsmoking parents, much less make a pact with their mom and dad to give up cigs when they turn 30. But that's exactly what Rachel Weisz, 32, did. 'I don't know why 30 became the magic number,' says Weisz (pronounced 'vice'), who is now starring opposite Gene Hackman and Dustin Hoffman in Runaway Jury. 'I was motivated by health reasons. I certainly didn't want to get cancer. But vanity also came into play. I was concerned that smoking would cause me to age more quickly,' she says. The threat of cancer was very real. Weisz's mother is a breast cancer survivor. Her aunt, meanwhile, is a medical researcher who is studying the link between alcoholism and breast cancer, and her father is a medical inventor. But even though she was aware of the health risks, quitting was tough for the British actress, who began smoking at 12 and 'got really hooked' in her 20s. It wasn't until Weisz attended Cambridge University in England that she became clean about her nicotine addiction to her mom, Edith, a psychoanalyst, and dad, George. 'They were mortified because they're vehement antismokers,' she recalls. Weisz has spent much of her adult life making movies. She had already quit cold turkey one other time before reaching 30, but says movie sets (which are scarcely smoke-free work environments) make it difficult to stay off the sticks. 'It's a hard place not to smoke. There's so much waiting around and fucking anxiety,' she says. After a particularly unheathly shoot for Beautiful Creatures, during which Weisz smoked roughly two packs a day, she and her costar, Susan Lynch, decided it was time to make a change. Together they found a retreat in southern Spain, where they checked their lighters at the door and did four hours of yoga a day (two in the morning, two in the evening) for a week. 'I think it helped to quit with a friend. We had a real support system,' Weisz says. Weisz was able to kick one bad habit in part adopting another. 'I brought 200 lollipops to the retreat because I was used to having something in my mouth,' She recalls. Weisz put on a few pounds when she first quit but says she was less concerned about weight gain that the health threats posed by smoking. And she's since learned to accept herself as is: 'I have a woman's body. Not a boy's. Most women do. You should feel proud of your ass, breasts, and bellies.' Staying away from cigarettes is an ongoing challenge for Weisz. But thanks to Hollywood magic, she can at least remain nicotine-free on the set. While she was filming her chain-smoking role in this year's Confidence, the crew gave her cigarettes made from marshmallow leaves. Weisz, who moved to New York City about a year ago, has on occasion given into her smoking whims. 'I've had relapses. I have to be honest,' she says. 'Sometimes, I'll have one after dinner.' She runs 3 miles a few times a week and says she has become a better jogger after quitting smoking. 'I can run farther now, without wheezing when I go uphill,' she observes. And even as she battles cravings, Weisz remains surprisingly tolerant of others who light up around her. 'I have empathy for addicts,' she says, with an attitude that suggests she's made the crucial mental jump from smoker to non-smoker", Self Magazine, Nov. '03 |
