Mirren ‘Understands’ Plastic Surgery

Dame Helen Mirren understands why so many women turn to cosmetic surgery to slow down the ageing process – they get bored of their features.

The veteran British actress has shunned the Hollywood trend to go under the knife, but she’s now defending others who have operations to improve their looks.

She says, “I don’t think there’s outside pressure, I think it’s the pressure you put on yourself when you look at the mirror in the morning. You go, ‘I don’t want to look at that face any more,’ and I understand that, absolutely. I think people should be allowed to do whatever they want to make themselves feel happy.”

Tarantino ‘offers Mirren medieval role’

Dame Helen Mirren has reportedly been approached by Quentin Tarantino to appear in his next film project.

The Academy Award-winner has been asked to play a foul-mouthed monarch in the Inglourious Basterds director’s upcoming medieval movie. The film is expected to contain “bloody violence” and will be set in England’s Middle Ages.

A source told The Sun: “It will feature his trademarks – bloody violence and foul language. Helen has never worked with Tarantino and is interested. If the film goes into production it’s likely she will play a part.”

The 64-year-old actress, who played Queen Elizabeth II in the 2006 movie The Queen, has admitted that she would be interested in wearing a crown again for another part because portraying the monarch was one of her most satisfying roles.

Mirren added: “The Queen was such an individual, idiosyncratic film. It was one of a kind. You can’t repeat that. People have asked, ‘Is there going to be a sequel?’ Yes, let’s do the golden jubilee. That would be interesting.”
