Elizabeth Olsen's 'Secret Shame': Not a Pet Person

Elizabeth Olsen recently shared what she calls her 'secret shame,' admitting she is not fond of animals or pets. This aversion made a past celebrity interview involving puppies a particularly 'miserable' experience for her. Olsen explained that she often feels judged when declining to interact with pets or even hold other people's babies, stating a need for a connection before physical engagement.

Beyond her discomfort with animals and infants, Olsen also discussed her emotional responses to films, noting that only a few specific movies, like 'Gone with the Wind' and 'The Way We Were,' can make her cry, often attributing this to nostalgia. She also reflected on her upbringing, describing her childhood with her elder sisters, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, as 'pretty chaotic' due to their close ages.

Olsen's career continues to be busy, with her latest film 'Eternity' having recently been released. She has also ventured into children's literature, co-authoring books on overcoming anxiety with her husband, musician Robbie Arnett. Several other film projects are also slated for future release.
