LOADINGERROR LOADING

“The White Lotus” star Aimee Lou Wood is gushing over the positive press she’s received about her appearance lately, but she made it clear she doesn’t want fans going to extreme lengths to achieve her unique smile.

“I can’t believe the impact my teeth are having, because the Americans can’t believe [my teeth],” Wood, 31, said while appearing on ITV’s The Jonathan Ross Showon Saturday. “But they’re all being lovely.”

In season three of the Max series, Wood stars as Chelsea, the optimistic younger girlfriend of Walton Goggins’ character, Rick Hatchett.

Wood, who said she faced years of bullying over her gap-filled smile, told host Ross that since the show premiered last month, she’s been seeing posts on social media analyzing her smile.

“They dissect my teeth and say what’s wrong with it,” she explained. “But at the end go, ‘But we don’t think she should change a thing.’ Oh my God, it feels so lovely. A real full-circle moment after being bullied for my teeth forever.”

Despite being elated over the delayed appreciation, the “Sex Education” star went on to firmly say she doesn’t want fans to take their infatuation with her smile overboard by cosmetically altering their own teeth.

“I hope people don’t start filing their teeth so they have gaps,” Wood added.

Back in 2020, Wood got candid about how her smile often made her skeptical about her chance of landing roles on television.

“I’d always be super confident when I went to theater auditions, but if it was a TV thing, I’d be so shocked when I got a recall,” the star told U.K. magazine Stylist at the time. “I sometimes thought, ‘Oh, a Channel 4 thing, I might have a chance on there.’ Then ‘Sex Education’ came along, and I was like, ‘Well, what have I seen on Netflix? Everyone has perfect Hollywood teeth.’”
