Showbiz royal Dame Helen Mirren has been voted as the celebrity ‘who has aged the best’ in a poll rating celebrities over 60. She saw off competition from Dame Judi Dench, 77, singer Lulu, 63, Joanna Lumley, 66, and 62-year-old Sixties supermodel Twiggy. On a previous occasion, the actor has already been crowned as ‘Body of the Year’, the Daily Express reported.


Meryl Streep, 63, and her Mamma Mia co-star Julie Walters, 62, were next in a top 10 and women over-60 category of a poll conducted by mobile phone giant O2. Veteran actor Helen Mirren says she is against young people going under the knife and finds it horrific. “The only thing I don’t like on young people is plastic surgery,” Mirren told InStyle magazine. However, the legendary British actress previously defended the right to have cosmetic surgery, saying she understood why people change their appearance, reports contactmusic.com.

“You go, I don’t want to look at that face anymore and I understand completely, I think people should be allowed to do whatever they want to make themselves feel happy,” .
