Why Helen Mirren Wants to Rename the Beauty Industry the 'Swagger Industry'

When Dame Helen Mirren learned she'd been chosen as the cover star of PEOPLE's 2022 Beautiful Issue, "I was absolutely sort of gobstruck, as we say in England. I never considered myself 'beautiful.' And [at] my age! So I was amazed," the Oscar winner, 76, says.To get more news about 国产美女一级做受视频, you can visit our official website.

It's not a false play at modesty, she makes clear: "Don't get me wrong — I love beauty and I love looking at beautiful things. But I don't like the word beauty [as it's] associated with the beauty industry—makeup and products, skincare and all the rest of it — because I think it excludes the vast majority of us who are not beautiful."

"There are incredibly beautiful people in the world, and it's an absolute delight to look at them, male or female. Beautiful people are a wonder to behold," adds the actress, who has been L'Oreal Paris spokesperson since 2014. "But most of us are not beautiful. We have other stuff, which is just as powerful as beauty. And I would like to see us celebrate those things … I love the word swagger because I think swagger means I'm confident in myself, I'm presenting myself to the world, I'm enjoying the world around me. I think what is called the beauty industry should be called the swagger industry. We're giving people swagger."Mirren has built up plenty of swagger in her life and career, which includes more than 140 credits over 55 years. The Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award recipient has several films out this year, including The Duke, Golda, Shazam! Fury of the Gods and White Bird: A Wonder Story, but says she still gets nervous before starting a new project.

I get very nervous about the day-to-day process. And meeting and dealing with new people. And not knowing whether I am going to remember my lines or not," she tells PEOPLE. "I just get very frightened until I get into the swing of things and then I kind of relax." She sleeps easier when a film wraps. "Once it's done I'm not nervous, because it's done, you can't pull it back," she says. "It's the doing of it that I get nervous about." (Though she still doesn't read film reviews—good or bad.)
While she admits "you have to continue working on yourself to a certain extent," the best salve for her fears has been time. "Simple really: Getting older. It happens. Other people call it growing older, but I call it growing up," she says. "And one of the advantages is that you literally get to be wiser. Life is a constant process of learning."
