The “Titanic” star has always proudly stated that she has never had Botox or any other aesthetic procedure, and according to her, some of the most beautiful women she knows are over 70 years old.
“What I love the most is when hands age,” she told the publication. “It’s life, in your hands. Some of the most beautiful women I know are over 70, and what worries me is that young women have no idea what being truly beautiful means,” she concluded.
