Kelly mcgillis
"I'm old, fat, and I look my age." Kelly McGillis was the protagonist in Top Gun, but I assure that no one called her for the new movie, not even to pay tribute to her character. "I prefer to feel absolutely safe in my skin and in who and what I am at my age, instead of valuing all those other things."

Anne Hathaway

Goldie Hawn
There are three ages in the life of a Hollywood actress: the hottie, the district attorney, and Driving Miss Daisy.
Jennifer garner
I'm not a sexy girl anymore, and I'm not offered as many roles. I don't get the offers that I got during the first InStyle cover in 2004. But I know what I'm being offered is because someone really wants to see me play a role.
