The paparazzi captured 78-year-old Goldie Hawn on vacation in her swimsuit, sparking a flurry of reactions from those who saw the photo. Many internet users shared strong opinions about her appearance.
The actress has been in a relationship with actor Kurt Russell since 1983, and the couple shares one child together. Russell has also been a father figure to Goldie’s two children from her previous marriage, Kate Hudson and Oliver Hudson.
One commenter criticized the actress’s lack of a tan, stating, “I love her but I hate the color and style of this swim suit I believe a little tanning cream just saying.”
Some users criticized her swimwear choice, with one commenting, “There comes a time when you should not wear some suits or shorts anymore”
In contrast, another user praised the actress for how great she looks at 78, saying, “This is an amazing photo! I hope like HELL when im 78 i can stroll the beach in a bathing suit and a tiny cover and not gaf what anyone else thinks! 😊 i think shes beautiful!”
Others expressed frustration at the negative remarks, stating, “My God people, leave her alone. She looks great for her age. End of story!”
The actress embraces the aging process without hesitation.
She remarked, “Getting older is a fact of life. By living mindfully, you understand that there are many transitions in life, [and] you just have to go through them,” she shared with People. “It’s wonderful to know that you’re aging because that means you’re still on the planet, right?”
However, she is keenly aware of the age bias prevalent in the industry and among its audience.
“You think you’re going to fight the system? You think you’re going to prove to Hollywood when you hit 45 that you’re still a sexy, viable object? No. There’s a certain reality,” Hawn expressed to Bazaar. “Does it make me angry? No. I’m not an angry person. I’m not a militant person. Anger doesn’t get you anywhere. It’s not productive.”
