This is a nice photo of Terminator 2 star Linda Hamilton from the always entertaining Celebrity Smack blog. As you can see, she has absolutely no signs of any Botox in her face! This is what a typical 52 year old woman (who has been in the California sun) looks like. Botox would smooth the wrinkles of her forehead, frown lines, and crow's feet.
I can't decide who was more ripped, Linda Hamilton in T2 or Angela Bassett in What's Love Got to Do With It...
Thanks for reading.

I applaud Ms. Hamilton for ignoring injectibles and aging naturally but hers is definitely not the way typical 52-year-old sun-drenched California faces look. I'm a Californian, 75, never use sunscreen, and she looks older than I do. To me, it appears that she may be on a low-fat diet and is aging badly from the inside out.
ReplyDeleteLet's hear it for avocados and butter.
She's only typical of a 52-year-old chain smoker who once dieted herself down to a 12% body fat ratio for a movie role and probably didn't wear much sunscreen growing up. I know plenty of 52-year-old women that look MUCH better than that.
ReplyDeletebtw, I love your blog.
I'm happy to see a star who doesn't take the plastic surgery road, but you scared me with your comments that she looks likes a typical California girl. I'm 51, a typical, sunworshiping California woman, and I don't look anything like her. She's prettier than me but has about a thousand more wrinkles. I still tan and don't look like that! Something else is going on there.
ReplyDeleteIs she a smoker? + don't ignore state of mind. mental problems is not exactly good for the skin.
ReplyDeletesome say that stress can do more damage to the skin than even drinking and smoking..
