She told The Sun : “‘I styled that photograph myself. It was all about taking off the bra, taking off the shirt, tying the shirt around my waist.
When the publication asked her about the criticism that some older female stars face for posting in sexy outfits she said: ““You have to be strong. I never get angry with criticism. You can’t please everybody — that’s normal.”
