The first photo they used to illustrate her illness was, of course, a bad one. That black, and white photo near the end as a blonde was beautiful. Very exotic.

You said brown people do not age as fast as white people. That is different than melanin reduces wrinkling when exposed to excess sunlight. That is something I pointed out in my post. The ageing process has nothing to do with melanin. You're conflating the two and focusing on skin alone when aging is a total biological process on the whole organism. It also seems you are using this as sort of racial badge about darker skin people.

Picky, picky! I think she meant that the skin doesn't "age", or show the effects of aging, as much as other skin types. I guess what it means is, that skin with melanin in it doesn't show sun damage. People with no melanin need to avoid the sun as much as possible, in order to achieve the same youthful effect.
Her cells will tell her different. It doesn't matter how many layers of foundation she applies or how much plastic surgery she has; our internal physiology is aging every second. Wow, I'm pretty accurate. I guessed she was 42 before I looked at the article.
Too much makeup. Wonder what she looks like without it. She seems to have nice skin, but she clearly works hard on her looks. I'd rather see what her 40 year old natural beauty looks like. She's trying too hard.
She does look young, but she needs to stop hanging on her son LIKE a GF, and that would help. She is pretty, or at least I assume she is under all that make-up, wayyyyy to much spackle and eye make-up, and blond looks un natural.

Indeed. If she could be any more wrapped up in herself she'd suffocate.
If she had any more makeup on her head would fall off.
If she looked any more like a Madame Tussaud's wax dummy someone would box her up and return her to Hollywood. Where she will never end up because she's probably even too phony for that crowd.
Oh well, she got her 15 minutes. And fame is the goal isn't it?
I was occasionally mistaken for my oldest son's "contemporary" when I was that age. It gave me a severe case of the creeps!!! I didn't dress like a teen or layer on the makeup, as I wanted to be seen as a mom, and I certainly felt like a mom. At one point I was pregnant at 43 and in a store with my son, and got some disturbing questions from a staff member who had often seen us shopping together. She just wanted reassurance that I was his mother, for some reason. It was weird.
Now that I'm in my early sixties and a grandma as well, I don't look like a teenager anymore. That's perfectly OK with me
