50 Makes the Headlines – again!

General Add comments

Well, the Material Girl’s birthday is next week and surprise, surprise the papers are having a go already - ’she looks like a man’, she’s tired/ill’ and ‘has horrible hands and knees’ are just some of the headlines. If she can’t look good with all her wealth, what chance do the rest of us have – being the main inference of the narrative? Phew – makes me glad I’m not famous. What is it that makes us all targets at 50? Do men have the same problem? I don’t think so. When they go grey and get a few wrinkles, it’s ‘sophisticated’. Many actresses/celeb’s lie and take a few years off their actual age but I’ve often thought about adding a few on to mine. How young I would look if people thought I was 60 not 50! Something to think about anyway.
