Monica Bellucci, 58: The face has grown, but the soul has grown

Monica Bellucci, 58: The face has grown, but the soul has grown As we all know, Monica Bellucci is the ceiling of the fairy sister circle.

By Yan Guo LuanPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

In the Beautiful Legend of Sicily, she will be elegant, beautiful, enchanting, sexy... To assemble in one:

In the movie Love Me So Much, she's a living, breathing fairy, an impeccable beauty:

In the New French extremist film Irrevocable, she is the desperate, helpless, anguished rape victim:

On the big screen, her beauty is dynamic, otherworldly, even enviable.

But even if it is as beautiful as a "globe flower", it will eventually grow old!

After all, the Italian national treasure and the perfect match for the world's most beautiful woman, Monica Bellucci, is 58 years old this year.

Monica Bellucci, who has embraced the beauty of her youth, does not cling to her youthful skin. She can quietly accept the fact that she is getting older, but there is no denying that she is still one of the most beautiful women in the world.

In a confident interview with France 2 on November 5, Monica Bellucci said:

As she grew older, she found her beauty evolving.

She made a similar point in an interview with Hello Monaco in August:

"We will gradually discover more than the appearance. As we get older, the beauty we see changes, but there are so many other things we can present."

Monica Bellucci is comfortable with reporters denying her vanishing beauty:

"Time is fleeting, that's all. In a sense, everything has a time limit and a precise biological cycle."

"After youth and beauty, there are other things. We have matured and distanced ourselves from what was..." .

"I think it's very interesting to see a person evolve over the course of their life cycle."

"I want to grow old in a more 'peaceful' way. I'm not going for excessive thinness. I've always been a curvy woman.

Apparently, Lea Salame wasn't impressed with Bellucci's answer, saying she felt that when she talked about age, it came across as "a kind of self-abandonment."

Monica Bellucci countered:

Give up what? ! Absolutely not!

"I think it's a wonderful thing that time goes by. This is an attitude towards life, but it does not affect my desire and love for life in the slightest..."

"The little things in life fill our lives."

"At first, I was a young woman; Then I became a mother; I see different aspects of life."

She also stressed:

When you get a little older, you have the opportunity to play more roles. After experiencing the passage of time and the pain of life, the inner world of the character can be described more delicately.

Aside from coming to terms with her age, Monica Bellucci has no pathological obsession with her body.

In her life, she doesn't go to the gym, doesn't practice waistcoats, prefers wine and pasta, sometimes swims and practices Pilates.

But if she needs to be on camera, she will "go on a little diet." But when it comes to exercise and diet, moderation is her number one rule.

"I didn't have that problem with body remodeling. I had to have a completely different body shape when I was working with Liam Neeson on Memory."

"During the shoot, I was able to rebuild my body. I had dark circles under my eyes, gained weight and adjusted my physical condition."

But it's not easy. The former Monica Bellucci had a hard time accepting her body change until 2017, when she adjusted her mind and body shape.

She recalled:

"I've always seen my body image as a gift that I've never had to fight."

"At that time, I didn't destroy myself like a lot of actresses on screen."

"I think, with time, I can appear on screen in a different way."

"When audiences watch the movie Galaxy Way, they will see the change in my figure. For an actress, the body is part of the performance."

Oh! True to the amazing world of the earth flower, there are always different surprises to show the audience!

    I really like this actress, exactly the femininity she brings. She not only has classical beauty and could be read in any era, but also her image. And the attitude towards life is harmonious, without neurotic race.
