      When she was at her height of fame there was Angeline, who was famous like the Kardashians are today...famous for just being who they were. It’s not changed that much it’s just been magnified. There are smart people today who are famous and ridiculous people who are famous today. As it has always been and always will be.

      Justine is 55 years old, mature, one would not expect someone to have not self reflected and processed their life in their 5th decade of life because its what adults who are supposed to do! The young can't possibly appreciate truly until they too have embraced their own experience. Its part of the process of Nature. There are seasons. Its maturity, its not to be aplauded like some feat of a super human! What is to be aplauded is Justine's choice to write and share her experiences and speak about what is real and what is not. I hope you read her book ...

      @@fingerprint5511 Different people embrace or deny their "maturity" in different ways and at different times in their lives. In addition, different cultures and different generations within those cultures deal with and define maturity in their own way.
      Here in the U.S., some could say that a given 20 year old acts very mature, while others might see the person as too serious and still others may define the behavior as disingenuous.
      To applaud or disagree with any part of a person's maturity is the choice of each individual.

I have because I work with a bunch of them and they don't dress like that. For starters, she wasn't wearing jeans torn jeans. And maybe she dyes her hair because the gray is not spread evenly and she doesn't like the patchy look. Also, 20 year-olds dye their hair all kinds of colors, INCLUDING GREY.

    Man, Thursday nights on NBC in the 80s. "The Cosby Show" "Family Ties" "Cheers" "Night Court" and "Hill Street Blues" - never before and never again will there be a lineup like that. Nice to see she's remained healthy, stable and herself. She and her cast-mates brought me a lot of laughs when I was a kid.

      My mother is 76 and has not a single wrinkle in her face. All natural, no plastic surgery, just been eating healthy food, Glas of wine a day, workout 4 times a week and thinking positive. And to be honest doesn't look a day older than Justin.
      Does that mean that my mother probably isn't a real person?
      So a person should look like Ramses III mummy in order to be classified as a real person. Sorry, but at 54 today, an avarage normal healthy person should look better. Not in terms of look itself, because everyone has a personal taste. But overall from biological and medical point of view.

      I agree. The forever youthful mage society expects as we age is unattainable because if you get cosmetic work done you are criticized for being insecure and looking fake. If you don't you are called scary and old. As women we can't win the public opinion so we have to have self esteem regardless and walk our own path with confidence, not caring about the herd mentality.

      True. Although I will say (and I'm just purely speculating here) that it's sad that she perhaps felt she needed to neglect/sacrifice her beauty in order to be seen/heard/taken seriously as an intellectual woman and not just ditzy "Malory" from "Family Ties".
      Not even her eyebrows are done.
      Her appearance DOES speek volumes whether one wants to hear it or not.
      And it also DOES speak volumes about the psychological/emotional impact fame had on her as a young woman in Hollywood.🤷‍♀️

    Loved this interview. The quick question and answers are hilarious. It’s like she’s thinking 2-3 times faster than he is. She seems to not take anything for granted and has learned a lot by her experiences. Seems very down to earth.

    I like her a lot. She exudes so much class and confidence. A very sensible and honest lady with nothing to prove.
