Most recently, Graham spoke to Retreat Magazine about her approach to aging. 'I think what matters most is how you feel inside,' she told the outlet. 'Decide that you're hot and enjoy your life. What other people think of you is none of your business. If you feel good about yourself, no one can take that away from you. Pursue the things that fill you with joy, and surround yourself with loving people.' 'I don't drink or do drugs, and I get a lot of sleep,' Graham continued. 'Eating healthy makes me feel good. I like cooking for myself and other people. And I love it when people cook for me. Basically, I like eating! Also, I do affirmations. I think they are very powerful.

Advertisement Most recently, Seymour spoke to Fox News Digital about how she's stayed in shape for decades without fad diets or marathon workout routines. 'I almost always never have breakfast,' the 'Dr. Quinn' alum explained about her diet. 'I will have liquids and my vitamins. I've got this vitamin combination that has collagen. I'll have that in the morning and either black tea, coffee, or water. And then at lunchtime, I'll have a fabulous meal, whatever I want pretty much. I tend to like salmon, shrimp and grilled vegetables. And I love Italian food. I might have a little eggplant Parmesan; it's a favorite of mine. Maybe some lean chicken.' 10 Graham poses during a boat ride along the Italian coast. Heather Graham/Instagram 10 Graham admitted to being a happier person after she turned 55 in January.

Heather Graham/Instagram The star said that the one thing she 'almost never' eats is steak, but she does make exceptions. 'Once in a while, I'll have a little bit of filet steak, maybe a couple of slices. I'm not against it. But I feel better usually when eating fish and lots of vegetables. I grow a lot of my food in my garden, a lot of it in pots actually … it keeps the bugs out. I have lettuce, arugula, artichokes, avocados, blueberries and strawberries. Also, lots of different types of kale. I love eating fresh vegetables. When I grill my vegetables, I add a little bit of olive oil and sometimes a sprinkle of salt.' Advertisement The former Bond girl also noted that it's important for her to stay active daily. However, she listens to her body about what it needs each day. 'I work with a lady … it's almost like physiotherapy, but it's a workout. I do Gyrotonics and some Pilates – a lot of floor work, believe it or not, even though I'm on a bench. But everything I do, anyone else can do at home, in a hotel room, their living room, their garden – anywhere where you can put a yoga mat down. I do Pilates legwork, which is like doing some of my ballet. I can use my own weight or a ballet bar.' '… I'm very careful about doing the right technique,' she said. 'If I can't do too much, if I can't stretch too much that day, that's fine. I just do as much as my body is comfortable doing because I don't want to injure myself. I had back surgery a long time ago. That's a nemesis for me. So, I listen to my body.' Fox News Digital's Janelle Ash contributed to this report.

‘M3GAN 2.0' review: Not scary doll dud tries too hard to be campy
movie review M3GAN 2.0 Running time: 119 minutes. Rated PG-13 (strong violent content, bloody images, some strong language, sexual material, and brief drug references). In theaters June 27. Toys 'R' Ugh. M3GAN, the AI doll with looks to kill, was always going to come back for more carnage. Advertisement Not because her simple story warranted it. The fun first film was a huge box office hit in 2022. Of course they'd wring it dry. I did not, however, expect to get completely fed up with the sassy piece of plastic by just the second movie. The second minute! She's already leapfrogged to 'Leprechaun 4: In Space,' except with neither luck nor charm. With 'M3GAN 2.0,' the filmmakers have employed a bold strategy: Take a $180-million formula, shred it and forget it. Advertisement The stupid sequel, again directed by Gerard Johnstone, is not, by any stretch, a horror movie. Instead, the fembot has returned in an annoying, forgettable and hard-to-follow action-comedy, like a thinky 'Austin Powers' or 'Spy,' that isn't remotely scary. 'Seed of Chucky' is 'The Exorcist' next to 'M3GAN 2.0.' What the flick desperately desires is to be campy. Gay bar fodder. 'Rocky Horror,' it's not. But boy is it rocky; two hours of obnoxiousness with scattered giggles at the doll's dry putdowns. Advertisement 3 'M3GAN 2.0' is not a horror movie, unlike the 2022 original. AP Allison Williams is here again as Marnie — sorry, I mean Gemma — the high-strung inventor who has about-faced on artificial intelligence after her traumatic experience with M3GAN. Now she rails against the dangers of AI, and builds tech to enhance humans rather than replace them. She has a boring anti-AI boyfriend named Christian (Aristotle Athari), whose trajectory is 100% clear from the second he opens his mouth. But Gemma, Steven Seagal-obsessed niece Cady (Violet McGraw) and the Geek Squad are forced to team up with former foe M3GAN to defeat an even worse AI creature called AMELIA (Elizabeth Olsen impersonator Ivanna Sakhno). Advertisement They wind up in some fake-looking castle. M3GAN reveals she is a martial arts expert. There's a subplot about brain implants and a perfunctory self-destruct countdown clock. 3 Cady (Violet McGraw) and Gemma (Allison Williams) are forced to team up with former foe M3GAN. AP This is a movie you've seen a million times before, wrapped in a three-year-old meme, without a famous comedic actor, and saddled with a mumbo-jumbo script. In lieu of scares — not even an easy jump scare — M3GAN begs for laughs like an out-of-work Borscht Belt comic. You wait for her to shout, 'Take my wife, please!' M3GAN serenades Gemma with Kate Bush's 'This Woman's Work.' In an attempt to force lightning to strike the same place twice, she does another dumb dance. M3GAN briefly inhabits a Teletubby-esque toy. Advertisement And on and on. 3 The film gets a few scattered laughs, thanks to M3GAN's sassy putdowns. I laughed here and there — perhaps out of amusement, perhaps out of the need to clear my throat. But a series of stitched-together social media moments does not a movie make. Forget giving horror the old heave-ho. 'M3GAN 2.0' is also beige as far as action comedies are concerned. The film is too tied up in its mind-numbing technobabble dialogue to effectively blend fights and funny. Advertisement Like its nuts-and-bolts main character, this is a movie that's very confused about its own identity. And because M3GAN's the marquee star, everybody else throws in the towel. Nobody has a personality. Doll and dull. 'With every passing moment, I can feel my mind fragmenting,' M3GAN says. In that scene, she's speaking for us all.

Heather Graham, 55, confesses she's ‘glad' she never had children: ‘I feel free'
Heather Graham has confessed she's 'glad' she didn't have children — '80% of the time.' The 'Boogie Nights Star,' 55, reflected on her decision to avoid motherhood in an interview with The Guardian published Monday. 'I think I've had moments where I wondered: what would it have been like if I had a kid? I guess I would say 80% of the time I feel glad I don't have kids, and I feel free and really good about it, and maybe 20% of the time I wonder what would it be like. You just have to appreciate the life you have,' Graham revealed. 8 Heather Graham has confessed she's 'glad' she didn't have children — at least '80% of the time.' Kristin Callahan/ACE PICTURES/ 'I do think it's awesome now that more women are expressing their desire to not have kids,' she continued. 'The culture says: 'You need to have kids.' But why? If you're not being a people pleaser, what do you really want?' Graham — who wrote, directed and starred in her latest movie, 'Chosen Family' — admitted that she was a 'people pleaser' almost all of her life and that it wasn't until she was in her 40s that she began to shift her approach to life and relationships. 8 'I guess I would say 80% of the time I feel glad I don't have kids, and I feel free and really good about it, and maybe 20% of the time I wonder what would it be like.

Venezia2020/IPA / 'I realized, no, actually I can just ask myself, 'What do I want?' and make myself happy,' the 'Place of Bones' actress confessed. Graham's desire to overcome people-pleasing seems to have motivated her to cut off all ties with her parents and her sister (actress Aimee Graham) when she was in her mid-20s. 'I think I felt, as a younger person, that I couldn't really set boundaries with them that they would respect, so I wanted to explore that in the movie,' she said of 'Chosen Family.' 8 Graham — seen here in a March 2025 Instagram post — said of motherhood: 'The culture says: 'You need to have kids.'

Heather Graham / Instagram The 'Austin Powers' star also shared that her parents prevented her from accepting a role in the 1988 dark teen comedy 'Heathers' when she was 17. 'My parents vetoed it,' she revealed. Soon after, she moved out of her parents' house. 'I kind of became my own person and discovered: 'What do I like? What do I want when I'm not under this very judgmental, authoritarian, parental, patriarchal structure? What do I want to do? What do I think of this?'' the actress recalled. 8 The 'Austin Powers' star also shared that her parents prevented her from accepting a role in the 1988 dark teen comedy 'Heathers' when she was 17. Getty Images 8 'My parents vetoed it,' she revealed. Soon after, she moved out of her parents' house. Janet Mayer / 'My father's really religious, and they were, especially my father, very critical of everything I was doing. It didn't feel like a healthy dynamic,' Graham explained. 'I stopped talking to them and, I have to say, that was a huge relief. I felt like, at that moment, my life opened up with a freedom. I didn't need to please them.' While Graham's family has attempted to contact her over the years, she doesn't desire to have a relationship with them. 'There was an effort made, but it was always very judgmental, like: 'Let me give you the number of the priest and you can go to confession,'' Graham explained. 'I just think we're really different. They have a lot of great qualities – it's just not a healthy dynamic for me.'
