You know how twitter went into melt down yesterday over Renee Zelwegger's new face (which is kind of mad considering she's been sporting her "different" look for a good six months now)? Well, she's only tickled silly people have noticed she's a far cry from her former self. Apparently she is glad people are saying she looks different. Which is handy considering she's stuck this way forever/until she gets bored.
The 45-year-old actress has been the subject of plastic surgery accusations on social media sites after she stepped out looking almost unrecognisable at the ELLE Women in Hollywood Awards in Beverly Hills on Monday (20.10.14), but insists her latest look is down to her doing a much better job of taking care of herself.
Describing conversations about her appearance as "silly", she told PEOPLE magazine: "I'm glad folks think I look different! I'm living a different, happy, more fulfilling life, and I'm thrilled that perhaps it shows. My friends say that I look peaceful. I am healthy. For a long time I wasn't doing such a good job with that. I took on a schedule that is not realistically sustainable and didn't allow for taking care of myself."
Mmmmkay. The reason she may look "peaceful" is cause her face doesn't seem that motivated to exert itself.
The Bridget Jones star has admitted she previously made "bad choices" in life when she felt "exhausted" and instead of stopping to rest and recuperate she just kept going, but she is now "happy" with her appearance.
She added: "Rather than stopping to recalibrate, I kept running until I was depleted and made bad choices about how to conceal the exhaustion. I was aware of the chaos and finally chose different things. People don't know me in my 40s. People don't know me [as] healthy for a while. Perhaps I look different. Who doesn't as they get older? Ha. But I am different. I'm happy."
Cool, I'm super looking forward to my 40s, whereupon I'll be magically gifted with various portions of Sarah Jessica Parker's face. Presumably.
