Brooke Shields is “too scared” to get any plastic surgery.
The 60-year-old shared her temptation to go under the knife as she ages, but noted that she views beauty as more than just physical appearance.
“For me, beauty meant being smart and being strong but I acknowledge that there are changes. I fully understand that beauty is so much more than just not having wrinkles,” she told People on Wednesday.
“Listen, I work out, I get face peels, I mean I haven’t gone under the knife. It seems tempting but I’m too scared!”
The actress has also learned to laugh off the insecurities she has while watching herself on screen.
“When I was younger and I had body doubles… that was very different for me. And now I want a body double and they won’t give it to me!” she told the outlet of filming sex scenes.
“So they’re equally ridiculous. There’s a hundred people standing around you. I think I’m probably more self conscious now than I was when I was younger because things need to be lifted so I’ve got to have a pulley system to lift ‘the girls’ up,” the model quipped of her breasts.
But the “Blue Lagoon” star still takes pride in her physique. She celebrated her milestone birthday last summer by posting bikini-clad photos of herself.
“Woke up in Paradise … and in a new decade of life,” she captioned the post. “This is 60! Thank you for all the birthday love,” she captioned the vacation snaps.
In January 2025, she gushed about aging naturally and revealed how she does so in the public eye.
“It’s important to understand where you’ve been, but I think it’s really joyous to say, ‘I may not know where I’m going, but I’m here. This is a different age than it used to be,’” she explained on “Good Morning America.”
“And yeah, I want to look my best, and I want to be healthy. Again, I always say, ‘I wish things were a little higher and tighter,’” Shields joked while moving her hands in an upward direction below her chin.
“But by the same token, I’ve earned everything I have on my face,” Shields added. “It’s important to pat yourself on the back and say, ‘What do you want to do now? You’re no longer tied to biology in the same way.”
The Commense founder has always been vocal about the pressures of fame, previously telling Glamour that she was embracing her wrinkles and wants to “chase now” instead of “chasing youth.”
“I am all for any of it if it truly is done for yourself, for the right reasons, and gives you a level of some kind of confidence that you need,” she said when asked about her thoughts on cosmetic procedures.
“I’m scared of not looking like myself; the times that I’ve had Botox, I end up with this Spock eye and I’m like, ‘I don’t look like myself.’”
