Don’t talk to Brooke Shields about dieting. the heroine of Blue Lagoon does not intend to limit itself to conforming to certain beauty dictates. “I love food, I love alcohol, I love life and I want to be healthy for my heart. I don’t like going to the gym. And I’m tired of not feeling thin enough,” she said in an interview with the American edition of the magazine. Glamour Published on Wednesday, November 1, 2023. If he says he loves Pilates, there’s no question he spends hours sweating on machines. “It’s boring and a waste of time,” laments the fifty-year-old about Hollywood’s pursuit of thinness.
A long process of self-acceptance
If she realizes her body isn’t what she wants it to be, Brooke Shields isn’t going to do anything to fix it. “I wish things were a little bit more toned and I had a little belly that I never had and I could lose it if I really, really wanted to try,” she admits, “but I prefer this spending time eating and reading a book, walking, shopping for jewelry, playing with my girls.

The former model explains that it took her a long time to approach life from this new perspective and worry about her appearance. “I don’t think I could have gotten there sooner. It’s a process. You should really cross it (…). The first time I did it was when I had a baby because my body had a purpose that no one could take away from me,” says mother Rowan Francis and Greer Hammond Henchy.
“I don’t want to chase the youth”
Thinness isn’t the only directive Brooke Shields struggles with. She, who confided on Instagram last April that she had “earned” her wrinkles and urged not to fall into the “trap” of injections, regrets the routine use of a scalpel in an attempt to erase the signs of ageing. “In some cultures, we are the wise women who decide who the leaders are and who should be worshipped. People are here… I mean, look in this room. Plastic surgeries are more and more common than ever. Because they are chasing youth. I don’t want to chase the youth. I want to pursue the present moment,” he said in the interview Glamour.
However, the actress The little one Louis Malle is not against cosmetic surgery at all. “I’m all for it if you’re really doing it for yourself, for the right reasons, and if it gives you the level of confidence you need. I noticed that it can give women such confidence,” she admits. However, based on his own experience, he suggests going in moderation. “I think it’s easy to overdo it. I’m afraid I’m not like me. Back when I was doing Botox, I ended up with this Spock eye [en référence au personnage de Star Trek, NDLR] and I said “I don’t look like myself.”
Instead, she lists the use of Fraxel lasers and peels among her alternative treatment options. “Whatever’s new, I’ll try it. I just don’t want to look like me,” he concludes.
