" Michelle Rodriguez has admitted that she was happy to leave her &amp;quot;butch&amp;quot; film image behind and embrace a sexier role in Machete. The 32-year-old actress, who co-stars in the new action-thriller, claimed that she was typecast for several years, playing women in uniform, and revealed she was relieved to have finally broken the &amp;quot;annoying&amp;quot; streak. In an interview with Movie Hole, she said: &amp;quot;You know what was amazing to me? Finally not having a frickin&amp;#039; cop outfit. I&amp;#039;m so tired of these butchy polyester outfits. It seems every time I do something I&amp;#039;m wearing some government outfit - it&amp;#039;s so annoying. With the exception of Fast And The Furious, I&amp;#039;m always in uniform. I&amp;#039;m always like, &amp;#039;Can I just get rid of this butch outfit and be hot for once?&amp;#039;&amp;quot; The 32-year-old also revealed that she told director Robert Rodriguez that she would not expose her breasts on camera. She added: &amp;quot;That was one of my first conditions before we even started, &amp;#039;I&amp;#039;m not taking this off and you&amp;#039;re still interested Robert, you can pay me&amp;#039; - I&amp;#039;m joking. &amp;quot;But I understand why some did. I think it&amp;#039;s that some people have that Cleopatra appeal, some people have that warrior appeal, and some people have the mother appeal - whatever your power is as a woman, go for it! Run with it!&amp;quot; Machete arrives in US cinemas on September 3. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
