Penelope Cruz, Happy Getting Old Penelope Cruz |
There are very few actresses in Hollywood who do not try to hide their age by making diplomatic statements or using Botox and one of them is Spanish actress Penelope Cruz.
Cruz, 36 revealed that she never tries to hide her age and is happy getting old.
"I never want to lie about my age. If I look around at the actresses I admire, they are all women who have not fought growing older, but embraced it - women like Sophia Loren or Audrey Hepburn," she quoted.
The Spanish beauty also added that she is inspired from her grandparents who were proud of their old age and wants to follow their footsteps.
The actress said, "I was very close to both of my grandmothers growing up - they lived long into old age and they were always beautiful to me. They loved life and it showed in their faces. Of course my face will change as I get older, but that's OK.”
"It's a good thing to be old, because that means you haven't died yet right? And when I do get older, I want to have the grace to be proud of it, not to lie about it or try to fight it," she added.
