Christina Hendricks is known for her curves, and while she embraces her figure, the actress has her limits when it comes to what people say about her frame. During a recent interview, the actress was caught off guard when the woman interviewing her referred to her as a “full-figured” woman. While off camera, Christina expressed her disapproval of the term, but the interviewer seemed to forget as she brought it up once again. That’s when the Mad Men star became a mad woman star and the whole thing came to an awkwardly abrupt halt.
