Helen Mirren, a 69 year-old British cum Oscar-winning actress, has just signed on to be the newest L'Oréal Paris UK brand ambassador, joining the her fellow age-defying stars such as Jane Fonda (76), and Diane Keaton (68).

As Mirren told Telegraph UK earlier:

"I am not gorgeous. I never was, but I was okay-looking and I'm keen to stay that way... I hope I can inspire other women towards greater confidence by making the most of their natural good looks. We are all worth it!"
