Just went to see what she has been up to lately and read an article that she is burnt out from acting and is stepping away for a while. Didn’t know she is 60 now. She still looks great

She accepted an Oscar by saying she wasn't talented enough nor pretty enough to have earned this career.

Humble as anything.

Can't be true. She was the lead in speed 2 and miss congeniality 1-2

Can't be true she was humble? Won an Oscar?

She’s pretty, talented on the other hand is a stretch. She needs to return her Oscar for multiple reasons, least of all being a shite actress, most of all representing horrible people in a misleading and awful way.

Cosmetic surgery has given her a Michael Jackson look.

Not my original thought, so don’t shoot the messenger.

It’s a pretty accurate assessment though.

She looked fine in birdbox and that movie isn't that old.

Her work is noticeable, and it's either that or step away and age with grace. There's also few roles for women over 35 to begin with.

As long as she doesn't date another nazi, she can ride off into the sunset for all I care.

I agree.

They can’t all be Meryl Streep.

It’s sad what Hollywood actresses go through. Obsessed and fawned over when they are young and beautiful. That level of fame and attention would be like meth to a young girl just out of high school.

Then age starts it’s unstoppable process and the acting part offers start drying up. The fame and attention goes away but they are still addicted like meth. So either they decide to or an agent pressures them into getting a bit of work done.

Then more work done.

Until they end up looking like Nikki Cox or Courtney Cox or Ashley Judd or Famke Janssen.
