People Magazine is doing a good job releasing details from their Most Beautiful issue. As Hecate has mentioned, theyre doing a 10 year challenge, where women who posed without makeup in 2009 are doing it again. So many of the celebrities have said theyre happier with their looks and just in general now, and thats true for Brooke Shields too. Weve already heard from Brooke about her thoughts on aging and staying fit. In this latest excerpt shes talking about the importance of sunscreen, particularly when it comes to teaching her daughters about preventing skin cancer. She also talked about her famous eyebrows and how shes grateful for them and how she thinks she looks younger than 53. She does look younger than 53, but you guys tell me not to use that as a compliment anymore. I love when people tell me I look younger than I am that so it will be a hard habit to break.
?I feel like look a lot younger, [Brooke Shields], 53, tells PEOPLE in the 2019 Beautiful issue. ?And yet, I still feel like I?m myself.?
[Shields] says her biggest beauty change in the last decade has been prioritizing her use of sunscreen due to health scares over the years.
After learning her lesson about sun protection, Shields now advises her daughters Rowan, 15, and Grier, 12, to start regularly applying sunscreen.
?I don?t want them having stuff cut off their face like I?ve had to in my later years,? [Shields] says. ?They just burn so easily. And whenever I have to get a procedure, something burned off, I show it to them. I say, ?You want this?? Getting stuff cut off my lip. There was an era where we were baking in the sun, and you can?t do it.?
?My eyebrows are my favorite thing because I don?t have to do much to them,? Shields says. ?They have thinned over the years, which is quite shocking, really. But they?ve always been such an important part of the way people see me. As I?ve grown older, I appreciate that I don?t have to use an eyebrow pencil.?
That?s another lesson Shields wants her teenagers with husband Chris Henchy to know: embrace your natural beauty. ?I think that it?s important for my kids to see in this age where there?s so much going on with makeup, to not forget that we?re as beautiful and should be as confident without makeup,? she says
I am in my place now where I feel like I actually look and feel the best that I have in decades.?
[From People]
Im very fair and have only had two sunburns as a child that I can remember. All of my day moisturizers have sunscreen, thats the easiest way to remember to use it. Im really lucky that my mom taught me to wear sunscreen from an early age. She grew up on Long Island in the 50s and 60s and they used to bake on the beaches. Shes since had treatments for skin cancer similar to what Brooke mentioned. My dad and mom both used cream from the dermatologist that brings out the skin cancer and helps get rid of it. The difference in their skin afterwards is amazing although it was hard for them to go through as your face gets scaly, red and blotchy while youre doing it. Ill admit that the main reason Ive always worn sunscreen though is to prevent wrinkles. I dont know how much it worked because I still have them, but maybe it would be worse if I didnt protect my skin so much.
As for her thoughts on going without makeup to show confidence, I always talk about that and you know my position on it. No one should have to prove anything by wearing makeup or not wearing it. Women should be able to make their own choices without pressure and that includes going without makeup as well.

I don’t know if I’ve ever done a post on Brooke Shields before, considering I’m pretty sure she was considered washed-up by the time I started this site. But I’m always willing to make an exception for any hottie looking to restart her career by posing in her underwear. So here’s Brooke looking pretty damn […]

Gearing up for the next phase of her career, Brooke Shields showed up at the MAC Cosemetics launch of the Brooke Shields Collection at the 5th Ave Flagship in New York City on Wednesday (October 1).
Joined by MAC global brand president Karen Buglisi and creative director James Gager, the ?Suddenly Susan? star worked the crowd like a seasoned pro and posed for plenty of photographs.
While chatting with People, Brooke commented on how her eyebrows have always seemed to get a ton of attention.
?I?m flattered, but it?s been so many years of that and when you get that label as a young kid, it?s hard to not think it?s ridiculous! My mom would always say to me, ?Don?t touch them.? And [modeling agency owner] Eileen Ford wanted me to bleach them because I was blonde [at the time]. But my mom just said, ?We?re leaving everything natural!'?

This is a bizarre story that’s not a direct quote, but definitely sounds like something Brooke would say. Brooke Shields is very upfront about her issues, but she’s not oversharing every week like other celebrities. Brooke has shared her thoughts on aging in Hollywood, she’s admitted that she suffered from postpartum depression and sought help for it (you don’t know the history of psychiatry) and she’s talked about staying fit by exercising and eating less. When Brooke shares something about her life, you get the sense that she’s just being honest, not that she’s trying to get headlines or preach to the masses. So that’s why I believe this story that Brooke gained a little weight after a knee injury, and why I also believe that she doesn’t really care about it:
Once America?s preeminent sex symbol, Brooke Shields has put on 10 pounds in the past four months, and is ?adamant that she couldn?t care less? about it, a source told RadarOnline.com exclusively.

She?s always up for a fun-filled night, and Brooke Shields hosted a private Burlesque performance in New York City over the weekend.
The ?Lipstick Jungle? actress and Tina Turnbow turned up for an exclusive show at the swanky Nurse Bettie bar, where they were spotted having a wonderful time mingling amongst the scantily-clad performers and guests.
Aside from her burlesque soiree doings, Shields recently signed on to star in and executive produce an upcoming real-world drama turned adaptation called ?Little Pink House: A True Story of Defiance and Courage.?
The movie revolves around anti-emiment domain heroine Susette Kelo, who lost her little Pink house in a 2005 U.S. Supreme court ruling in which the court ruled that eminent domain could be used to take homes for private development projects - a decision that outraged the nation.

Acting as one of A-list chairs behind the evening's much-anticipated party, Brooke Shields was spotted arriving at amfAR's Cinema Against AIDS Gala today (May 19).
The 45-year-old actress was a vision in white, sporting a spectacular one shoulder gown with silver detailing and a pair of white peep-toe heels.
Brooke's newest project has her fronting the role as Morticia in the theatrical production of "The Addams Family."
Shields, who made her breakout Broadway debut in 1994, will star opposite Roger Rees when the play opens at Lunt Fontanne Theatre on June 26.

Brooke Shields looked a little long in the jowl at “The Tourist” premiere last night. I had to look twice just to make sure she wasn’t Hagrid’s dog in Harry Potter. But I knew it was her once I saw that hideous blouse. Fang would never be caught dead in such an unflattering neutral!

It took a hot minute for PETA to go after Brooke Shields for her weirdly worded endorsement of the fur industry. Brooke visited a fur studio in Copenhagen this spring, during which time she made her own fur coat and then endorsed a statement written by a non-native English speaker about how awesome fur was and how it was every little girl’s dream. She supposedly said “I will wear the fur garment when I follow my children to school, when I drink coffee and when I sleep,” and that “I will advocate that both my generation and the younger generation can wear fur.” Yes, you and your daughters can wear fur, if you want to look like cruel bitches who don’t care about the plight of animals.
PETA was of course all over that, and went after Brooke, citing her fading career. This was just what Tom Cruise did when he disagreed with her confession to using antidepressants, and it doesn’t add to PETA’s case:
The animal-rights organization is lashing out at Shields for visiting Kopenhagen Fur’s workshop back in March and making comments such as “I will advocate that both my generation and the younger generation can wear fur” and “I will wear the fur garment when I follow my children to school, when I drink coffee and when I sleep.”
Not surprisingly, a post on PETA’s website reads: “When I was a little girl, I dreamed about growing up to be a rock star. Or maybe a veterinarian. Or a roller derby queen. I didn’t dream about anally electrocuting animals on fur farms, but apparently Brooke Shields did.”
But the criticism doesn’t stop there, with a few potshots at Shields’ livelihood thrown in for good measure.
“We understand that when some actors’ careers begin to fade, they’ll do just about anything to stay in the limelight, including appearing in eyelash-growing commercials and starring in short-lived TV shows,” continues the post. “But Brooke, did you really want the world to remember you as a ‘fur pimp’ who stares agog at rows of animal skins?”
[From E! Online]
I don’t know who I find more annoying, PETA or Brooke Shields. I actually liked Brooke before this whole debacle, so I would say that she’ll still slightly ahead and that it will ultimately depend on how she handles the fallout. Is she going to issue a statement clarifying her endorsement, or stay silent for fear of jeopardizing whatever she got paid for this? This incident speaks to both Brooke’s poor judgment and the sad fact that she’ll do just about any commercial. Jezebel ran a brief piece last summer “Why is Brooke Shields in every commercial?” in which they noted that she is a spokesperson for “Tupperware, Coppertone, Latisse, World Gold Council, Colgate, milk, Fertility Lifelines, and more.” I found a couple that Jezebel missed - Volkswagon and Godiva chocolate. What’s next for Brooke? Can she sink any lower than endorsing fur? Is her career as a celebrity spokesperson going to be jeopardized by an association with a fur company? We can only hope she becomes a little less ubiquitous.

Brooke Shields, who starred in that recent POS kids’ film, Furry Vengeance, loves fur so much that she made a custom fur coat at a Copenhagen studio. She also gave some confusing quotes praising fur. It’s all for cash, though, and we know that Brooke will endorse basically anything. I realize that no animals are going to go medieval on her ass and stage a forest revolt ripped off from Home Alone but I can dream. Now I’m getting flashbacks of that movie I was actively trying to forget, and I’ll never forgive Shields for that.
Brooke Shields visited Denmark in March to act out her ?little girl?s dream?: to design her own fur coat. The Hollywood star is thrilled with Kopenhagen Fur.
?Wearing fur may be associated with something grandmotherish. Something you wear when you visit the opera, or if you are a rock star and wears it inside out. But I will advocate that both my generation and the younger generation can wear fur?, says Brooke Shields.
The comment fell as the American actress visited Kopenhagen Fur?s creative workshop, Kopenhagen Studio early in March. Here she began designing her own mink coat made of the best Danish fur skins. Brooke Shields chose to work with the short-haired, black mink.
?Brooke Shields will be proud to be an exponent of the beautiful Danish fur skins in the U.S. She thinks that Kopenhagen Fur is very unique?, says Kopenhagen Studio?s Partnership & Alliance manager Natia Linneman and adds that the star has been intrigued by the way Kopenhagen Fur is organized and how the company centrally supports disease control and quality on fur farms etc…
The visit of Brooke Shields, who at the age of 15 became famous for her leading part in the movie The Blue Lagoon, was arranged in February during New York Fashion Week, where Kopenhagen Fur, in cooperation with the design house J. Mendel, had a major event in the city. J. Mendel also helps Brooke Shields to design her coat.
?I will wear the fur garment when I follow my children to school, when I drink coffee and when I sleep?, says Brooke Shields, who calls it a little girl?s dream to be able to design her own fur garment.

I really hope they paid her for this and didn’t just comp her visit to Denmark and give her some fur swag. Her people should have signed of on those quotes because they’re worded like only a non-native English speaker would phrase them. “I will wear the fur garment when I follow my children to school” makes it sound like Brooke is this crazy homeless woman stalking some grade schoolers in a tattered fur coat, babbling about how it’s her precious. (Yes, Michael K at D-Listed said essentially the same thing, but I like to think that I would have come up with that on my own although that’s probably not the case.) Now that’s what I think of when I hear about fur, crazy homeless old ladies and stinky moth balls. Even rich semi-old ladies wearing “new” fur makes me think of down on their luck homeless people, like fur is this monkey paw type curse that brings you warmth and the illusion of wealth and leaves you with nothing in the end.

I like Brooke Shields because she’s refreshingly normal and it doesn’t seem like an act. Sure she endorses too many things and it seems like I see her in commercials constantly, but there’s something very genuine about her. She’s honest and doesn’t come across like she’s trying to convince us that she’s just a normal working mom or that she hasn’t had any work done.
Brooke has a new interview in Parade in which she’s promoting a new family comedy she’s co-starring in with Brendan Fraser called Furry Vengeance, out this Friday. The movie looks dumb but funny. As the mom of a five year I have to say that I appreciate most family-friendly movies that come out and have enjoyed films that I would have mocked when I was single. (Tooth Fairy, for instance, wasn’t bad as far as kids movies go. Yes my standards are low, but The Rock is so easy on the eyes.) Furry Vengeance has both cute animals with human characteristics and a lot of sight gags, although I think it’s too mature for my son at this point.
Getting back to Brooke’s interview, she talks about growing older, staying fit, and accepting herself as she is. These are worn topics that actresses get asked constantly, and she gives kind of cliche answers in that she downplays the importance of diet and exercise and says she’s content with herself as she is. I believe her, though, and I like that she admits she exercises and doesn’t chalk it all up to “running around” with her kids. The part about eating less because she picks at her kids’ food doesn’t ring true to me, though. I know I eat more because I eat my own portion in addition to what my son leaves and I have to train myself to just throw it out. A recent study showed that parents living with children ate the equivalent of an entire pizza more fat a week than childless adults, so I would assume that more people can relate to eating more, not less, with kids around.
Preserving that sexy bod.
“Having two kids helps. You eat less for some reason because you end up picking at what they had to eat and don’t eat real food. I’ve always danced and I spin and I love doing yoga. I don’t exercise every day, but in New York, it’s easier because we walk everywhere. So we’re walking all the time. I make my kids do that too.”
But she’s not a fitness fanatic.
“It’s sort of a cliche, but it’s definitely been post-children and just surviving my 30’s. It sounds so granola, but I sort of celebrate what I do have rather than what I don’t have. You spend so many of your early years, or I did, focusing on the things that I wasn’t. I was never petite. I was always getting unfavorably compared to other people. Finally, I started saying, ‘You know what, I am going to wear heels. I don’t care if I’m 6?4? when I wear heels. Why should I compromise?’ There’s something freeing about not wanting to look 22 anymore. So as I’ve gotten older, I’ve given myself a little bit more of a break.”
Hooked on organization.
“I grew up without a routine at home, things were hit and miss. But my mother had me in a regular children’s school my whole life and that routine calmed me. My school became like my home. I never missed school for work, ever. Sometimes I used to take my organizing a little too far with my Filofax, but that was the way that I coped. I didn’t do drugs. I’m just organized.”
Passing it on.
“My kids thrive on the routine at bedtime, like the bath and the food and the book reading. Every night we say our prayers and we do a rose/thorn which is, ‘What was your rose of the day and what was your thorn of the day?’ I watch them and it just gives them a sense of comfort. It’s the same thing with rules. I have to enforce their behavior, including manners. But they like it. I think they just feel like they’re safe, and then they know that they can kind of go off and be kids at school.”

In terms of Brooke talking about growing older - two years ago she said that she still looked in the mirror and expected to see the same person she was was in her 20s. I can definitely relate to that, but the part about not eating as much when you’re a mom - not so much.
Here’s the trailer for Furry Vengeance. I bet it will do quite well at the box office, as these kid movies usually do. I haven’t heard much about it though:
