Richard Gere has "never" felt like a sex symbol.
The 66-year-old actor became a fantasy for women all over the world due to roles in movies like Pretty Woman and An Officer and A Gentleman and although he has been flattered by the attention he never considered himself a heartthrob.
In an interview with HELLO! magazine, he said: "At no time in my life have I ever felt like a sex symbol. It's an illusion. But the work you do and the spirit that you give to it does have an impact on people and that I can take pride in."
