Susan Sarandon, arguably one of the most iconic actresses of her generation, is not just known for her impressive on-screen career but also for her outspoken nature in real life.
When people began questioning her choices, she decided to deliver a lesson. Sarandon boasts an impressive and enduring career in Hollywood. Her portrayal of Janet Weiss in the 1975 cult classic “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” solidified her status as a talented actress. From there, she embarked on a journey through numerous films, receiving critical acclaim, including the beloved “Thelma & Louise” that earned her an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress. Ultimately, she clinched an Academy Award for her role in “Dead Man Walking.”
Sarandon has always been an advocate for body positivity, often expressing herself through her fashion choices. With an unapologetic personality, she openly champions the causes she supports.
During a red carpet event, she made headlines by wearing a white jacket with a black bra, a choice that raised some eyebrows, with a journalist going as far as to deem it “totally inappropriate.” However, rather than defending herself with words, Sarandon chose to respond with a picture, posting an old image of herself in her underwear, confidently displaying her figure. As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words, and with this act, Sarandon silenced anyone questioning what was ‘appropriate’ for her.
Aging doesn’t bother the actress; she focuses on what truly matters to her. In an interview, she reflected, “When your sense of time has an ending and isn’t finite, like how it feels when you’re young.” She continued, “When you have an understanding that time is precious—you have a tendency not to waste energy on the small stuff and only to surround yourself with people who are vital, curious, brave, and adventurous.”
Regarding her beauty regimen, Sarandon provided straightforward advice: “If you want to age gracefully, probably laugh a lot, get the normal amount of exercise, eat well, and stay out of the sun would be the main things,” she stated. The actress also acknowledged the role of having an amazing makeup and hair team to help maintain her appearance.
