Demi Moore has revealed that she fears the effects of ageing
I would be lying if I said I dont have moments of panic when I look into the mirror and see things creeping in that werent there before, she says.
Demi is rumoured to have spent £200,000 on cosmetic surgery. She's married to Ashton Kutcher, who at 30 is 15 years her junior.
But the Charlie's Angels star says she tries not to obsess about it.
Now I stop and, instead of focusing on my flaws, I think about all that I have in my life, she tells Harpers Bazaar.
I have a wonderful marriage, three wonderful daughters and loving friends. When I look back in the mirror, the reflection isnt so bad, because Im seeing the beauty of my whole being.
7 years ago the wife of a male friend -- who happened to be 10 years older than me said -- "you lose you looks when you're 50." Given that she was 10 years old than me -- roughly 53 -- and I 43, I now think she intended to cause worry. I know that when I turned 50 -- all of sudden that comment pemeated into my consciousness. I repeated it to woman, who is older than me --became equally upset - and said, "I wish you hadn't told me." Why put this on a public forum, maybe Demi's communication strategist will pick it up and help us out. I look in the mirror some times and think -- I look beautiful (at 50) -- more frequently than not, however, my "check out" (after dressing but before make up) my I find myself saying "do i look o.k."" to myself. If i don't think I look good no one else wil either. It's kind of like saying the notion of beauty is both content-dependent and context-dependent. when we can't escape our culture nor the mode of social learning we endure -- the more likely we are to doubt our appearance. Demi -- that's you word smithed answer. Take hte message do what you always do -- go on bill boards, black board, house cleaning service ,etc and look at the photos -- This is New York's finest hour -- when half the baby boomer population aged were dying -- we had the priviledge of receiving the news to the extent we and to then dream about our responsibilities. This sucks. Give me a land line and keep a bunch of busy social workers from new patience. --- Julia doesn't undertand Wha should I do short of fling to California and working in person to reset my internal clock. can you help me out?
