‘I just give zero f****s now': Rebecca Judd comes clean about beauty enhancements and why she ‘doesn't have a line on my face'
Rebecca Judd says she believes the time is right for women to be honest and open about their cosmetic enhancements, saying she no longer wants to hide what 'work' she has had done. 'I think 2025 is the year that we stop gaslighting women by saying, 'I don't have any wrinkles because I sleep for eight hours, wear sunscreen and drink lots of water,'' the model and influencer told the Stellar podcast, Something To Talk About. 'You get to a certain age where it's like, come on, let's be a bit more honest.' In a new interview with Stellar, Judd admits: 'I feel that this is the year where we stop bulls****ing everyone and we 'fess up'. 'I'm 42. I don't have a line on my face,' Judd continues, 'I'm telling you it's not because I get eight hours sleep a night, all right?' Listen to Rebecca Judd on a new episode of the Stellar podcast, Something To Talk About, below: She about spoke the catch-22 that many women – including Hollywood star Anne Hathaway and Kardashian matriarch Kendall Jenner – find themselves in when it comes to their looks, due to societal expectations and pressures around beauty standards. 'I think standards are so impossible for women right now. Everyone's talking about Lindsay Lohan's face and Anne Hathaway's face and Kris Jenner's face,' Judd told Something To Talk About, in a new episode out today. 'There's one camp saying, 'They've had work, how vain are they? How superficial, how shallow,'' Judd noted. 'And then you've got the other camp saying when women don't get work done and they show signs of ageing, grey hairs, wrinkles and sagging skin, 'She's let herself go, she should go and get some work.' So that person then feels pressured to go and get work done, and: 'Oh … she's overdone it.' 'And the cycle starts again. Women just can't win.' Speaking to the Steller podcast, Judd - who has four children with her husband, former AFL star Chris Judd - reflected on her past attitude toward being caught out by paparazzi en route to cosmetic appointments, and how she once feared anyone finding out. 'It feels really liberating to just let it go and be honest, because you're not trying to hide any secrets anymore,' Judd told Something To Talk About. Listen to Rebecca Judd on a new episode of the Stellar podcast, Something To Talk About, below: 'I remember five, seven years ago, I was going to get some injectables and there was a pap on my tail and I couldn't shake him. 'I thought, gosh, if I get photographed walking into a clinician and her name was on the sign where I'd be walking in, it'd be a front-page story and it would be so embarrassing. 'So I'd drive around, he'd keep following me, so then I wouldn't go into the appointment, I'd just drive home. 'Now, if a pap followed me, I wouldn't even care. It's like, get the photo, it's fine. I just give zero f****s now.'

Pamela Anderson, 57, Reveals The Refreshing Reason Why She Goes Makeup-Free on the Red Carpet originally appeared on Parade. Pamela Anderson, 57, just got super candid about beauty standards in a new interview with Harper's Bazaar UK. In the magazine's July/August issue, the 90s icon, who posed makeup-free on the cover as well, discussed the reason why she has continued going makeup-free on the red carpet as well. And honestly? I totally respect it. It is very refreshing. 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 Anderson initially started rocking a makeup-free look in 2023 after the death of her close friend and makeup artist Alexis Vogel. In a 2023 interview with Elle, Anderson explained that wearing makeup without her friend just didn't feel right.'She was the best. And since then, I just felt, without Alexis, it's just better for me not to wear makeup," Anderson told Elle. In the new 2025 Harper's Bazaar UK interview, Anderson opened up more about her decision to keep going makeup-free, saying how beauty trends are beginning to make everyone's looks feel a bit "boring," especially with AI and filters being so ubiquitous. "I think with AI technology and filters, people are becoming kind of boring-looking. I want to challenge beauty norms," she told Harper's Bazaar UK. "I've always been a rebel. I never see somebody and think, 'I want to look like that.' I just want to see who I am. At some point, you have to say, 'This is all I've got.' Surrender to it. And it's real happiness.'

Awkward moment Dame Helen Mirren horrifies group of actresses by stating that NONE of them are 'beautiful'
She's one of the most acclaimed actresses of all time, boasting five Emmys, an Oscar, and a Tony. But early in her career, Dame Helen Mirren was warned that she'd never become a star if she didn't get a nose job. Discussing the misplaced advice on The Hollywood Reporter's Roundtable with Niecy Nash, Parker Posey, Keri Russell, Kathy Bates, and Cristin Milioti, the 79-year-old accidentally offended her fellow thespians with a remark about their looks. 'Someone said, 'You'll never get work if you don't have a nose job.' I said no. I didn't want to be a pretty actress anyway. I elected to be not so pretty,' she said. Mirren then made a sweeping statement about the group's looks - which didn't go down well with one Oscar winner. 'Looking at our faces around this table, none of us are beautiful,' Mirren remarked. 'Oh, get out of town! I feel more beautiful than I have in my entire life,' Bates snapped back. Doubling down on her position, Mirren firmly stated, 'We're not. None of us are beauties. We all have really different faces, very interesting faces.' Attempting to calm the situation, Russell chimed in, 'I know what you mean. Like model beautiful?' Mirren cooly responded 'We all know what "beautiful" is like.' Although the legendary actress has shied away from plastic surgery and conventional beauty standards, she's always maintained a fit physique through exercise. She told Woman's Weekly that she is 'a big believer in the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) women's exercise regime, which is 12 minutes.' The star explained: '[Exercise] doesn't mean joining expensive gyms. It is an exercise regime that starts from very low and easy, then if you follow it through it can become quite difficult. 'I've never gotten past the second level but it's a nice little exercise program,' she added. The program is called the XBX routine, which means ten basic exercises, and was created by Dr Bill Orban in the 1950s for the Canadian Air Force's new female recruits to improve their fitness levels. It includes 30 seconds each of simple exercises like toe touching, knee raises, lateral bending and arm circling. Last month, Mirren told people in midlife not to 'fear' ageing. The 79-year-old actress said people should make 'little changes now to help them later in life.' This 'doesn't have to include joining a gym' but could include short walks or yoga, the Oscar winner said. Backing Age UK's new campaign, she said: 'Whatever you may think about ageing, it's something we must all try to embrace rather than fear. 'It's no secret that for many, getting older will come with its complications - specifically there will likely be aches and pains along the way, getting out and about and living as independently as we're used to in our younger years may not be as easy to do. 'This is why I'm supporting Age UK's Act Now, Age Better campaign, they're encouraging everyone in their 50s to make little changes now to help them later on in life,' she continued. 'It doesn't have to be joining a gym; it can just be small changes like taking a short walk or yoga, which I still enjoy. 'It's never too late to start doing something, so why not give something a go while you're younger?'

Kylie Jenner's BFF Stassie Karanikolaou finally admits she had BBL but reveals major regret over procedure
Kylie Jenner 's best friend Stassie Karanikolaou has finally admitted that she had a BBL surgery to greatly enhance the size of her derriere when she was younger. She appeared on Bravo Bri's podcast where she said the number one question she's been getting for the past 10 years is has she had plastic surgery and 'a** implants'. Stassie, 27, said she was pretty sure she revealed her BBL - a Brazilian Butt Lift - on an episode of Call My Daddy. At the time she knew she had to say something but she didn't want to come right out and say it. 'So I think I said literally "I moved things around,"' causing Stassie and Bri to giggle. 'I don't have a** implants and I don't think it's anything I can hide at this point, yes I have a BBL. I moved fat around.' Stassie also admitted to having a breast augmentation prompting Bri to say 'Well you look fabulous.' Stassie responded: 'Thank you, I just got them done a week ago.' She then got serious, saying, 'Obviously I got this done super young. It's something that I regret and I think that's why it's been so hard to talk about for so long.' She admitted that she's actively been trying to fix her BBL, saying, 'I literally have another surgery in a week to try and reduce the size of it a little more.' Stassie said they size of her BBL has been affecting her for years and she wished she didn't feel the way she did when she had it done. She felt like it was necessary because of the pressure put on women to conform to certain beauty standards that change over time. 'Do not surgically change your body for a trend and just know that its only going to be relevant for a little bit. 'Anyone else that knows me knows this is something I've been trying to do for a long time.' Kylie and Stassie have been friends for a long time after meeting through mutual friends when they were 13 and hanging out at a book store, Karanikolaou revealed on an episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast released in 2022. Since then, they have remained close and constant friends through their steady rise to fame. When Jenner celebrated her 27th birthday last summer Karanikolaou was present to party with her and was even featured on her Instagram post declaring that she had the 'best birthday ever.' During the same podcast appearance, Karanikolaou also got candid about getting plastic surgery at a young age. She opened up about the specific procedures she's had done but denied getting any work done on her backside. 'I have not had butt implants. The only implants that I have are in my t*tties,' she said. 'And I'm not saying that I haven't done other things and I haven't, you know, moved some things around or whatever the case may be. 'But I just feel like I was at a point in my life when I was younger and I felt like my lips needed to be big, my boobs needed to be big. 'Everything ... my butt needed to be big,' she said at the time. About her decision to get candid, she also stressed the importance of being open about cosmetic enhancements. 'There's such a stigma in plastic surgery and I feel like whether you say that you've done it or whether you don't say you've done it, people are going to find a way to say something about it and like make it a negative thing,' she said. 'No one needs to tell anyone anything if they don't want to.' However, she continued to open up about the 'taboo' subject and explained that the very first procedure she had was lip filler — but 'not at a good place,' she said. Since then, she said she continues to receive negative comments about her appearance on social media and even once in real life when she was vacationing in Greece. When a stranger told her she was 'full of plastic,' she said it upset her. 'I wanted to start crying,' she said. 'I don't want to look plastic. I don't want to look fake.' Afterwards, she said that she started revising her work to look 'more natural.' She also mentioned beauty standards and how they change like trends but noted that she has no regrets even though she wants a different look nowadays. 'I wouldn't say regret. I would say I've gotten stuff done that I didn't like the result but not regret," she said. 'At the time I wanted it and for the time I liked it. But I have taken it back.'
