Halle Berry’s Aging ‘Goal’ Means No Plastic Surgery
The gorgeous Halle Berry understands the pressures Hollywood puts on actresses to have cosmetic surgery, but she's trying to tackle the aging thing by staying natural.
Speaking with Yahoo Beauty's Editor-in-Chief Bobbi Brown, Berry admitted, "It is pressure. When you see everybody around you doing it, you have those moments when you think, 'To stay alive in this business, do I need to do the same thing?' I won't lie and tell you that those things don't cross my mind, because somebody is always suggesting it to me.”
The Oscar winner added, "It's almost like crack that people are trying to push on you. That's what I feel like… I just want to always look like myself, even if that's an older version of myself. I think when you do too much of that cosmetic stuff, you become somebody else in a way.”
The main point Halle makes is that true beauty comes from within. “I just have kept reminding myself that beauty really is as beauty does, and it is not so much about my physical self. Aging is natural, and that's going to happen to all of us… we have to stop wanting to look like that decade before. We have to stop coveting that. Let it go and embrace it now and really be okay. It's easy to say, I guess, but that's the goal.”
