In an interview with the Telegraph, hella hot septuagenarian Dame Helen Mirren said some fun stuff about getting older, her favorite swear word (f*ck—good choice), and being grateful that celebrities such as Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez have helped popularize a different, curvier kind of body type.
"I'm not into the Kardashians, it's a phenomenon I just don't find interesting," she said. "But—and this is the big word: B-U-T-T—it's wonderful that you're allowed to have a butt nowadays! Thanks to Madame Kardashian, and before her, JLo. We're also allowed to have thighs now, which is great too. It's very positive."
For her own part in promoting "realness," Mirren refuses to let L'Oréal retouch her campaign images for the brand's moisturizer, which, if you'll remember, a watchdog group had to investigate because some people just couldn't believe how hella hot a then-69-year-old can be. Pffft. Fools.
