*LOL*
I don't hate Helen Mirren.
I've had a "girl-crush" on her ever since seeing her in "Excalibur"...way back in 1981.
I think she's FANtastic!
Anyway...I am jealous of how she looks in a bikini:

I just know she has a flaking, aging portrait of herself...hidden in a deep closet or her attic! *LOL*
And I wish I had kept myself up as she has...to look so fabulous in a bikini, mature woman that she is...
Doesn't she look wonderful???!!!

Holy cow!!! She must work out constantly. She could almost pass for a Baywatch babe.

I know! I was floored when I read the corresponding story. She does not exercise, nor does she diet. This is hereditary.
I am leaving to eat a box of mallo mars and some peanut brittle now. Someone please hand me a kleenex.

I agree; it looks like Photoshop. Regardless, she's lovely.

She's almost 63! Wow! And I see that she really does have a cute shape. Here's a pic of her that I doubt has been photoshopped.

And...I would LOVE to have her shape!

I concur--- the bikini pic has been Photoshopped.... just a little though.... for "effect". But the raw truth is basically there.

She RAWKS. And she shows women half her age how it's done.
And she was even in a 'pron' film once, did you know that? Yes it's true! Caligula, that is (although she wasn't one of the ones doing the *ahem* real thing for the cameras, she was in the movie!!)

Both she and Meryl Streep are two of the greatest actresses! Meryl is 59. I just rewatched "Calendar Girls" with Helen and loved it all over again.

Those women have a LOT of advantages that we don't unless we had lots of money..........
I'm not knocking her though. She looks FAB!!

Yep, I just watched it again too. Love that movie. And this time they didn't cut out the part where she flashed her taa-taas.
You go, Helen!

Oh my...I've got an image of Elizabeth II in a turquoise pillbox and sensable shoes in Helen Mirren's body and bikini.

In "The Queen," it's pretty clear that Helen Mirren has a wide-ish bottom and thick-ish calves. She still looks great, but I think this photo-shopped picture has restored her to former glory.

Bikini: photo-shopped.
Is she fab ? Hell, yes !
Has she ever been pregnant, had surgeries, or babies? No.
Therein lies your answer, my beloveds.
Not that I'm ungracious, or unappreciative, mind; but, as someone who has bathed THOUSANDS of bodies [ since age 6 !], I can safely say that the body is indeed a roadmap of one's life...
My 72 y o maiden aunt never worked out; but she never gained/ lost much weight, nor was she ever pregnant.
When I bathed her [ after a massive stroke], I couldn't believe how lovely her form was- along with little sun exposure, btw.
A propos of Helen-
I really admire her.
I'm conflicted somewhat, because many interviews show a very brittle, entitled side of her that does not appeal...
That doesn't detract, however, from her immense talent.

They beefed her up for that role. She wore a lot of padding.
