How Paulina Porizkova learned to accept her wrinkles despite being terrified of them
“Wrinkles are the signs of privilege that you’re alive,” the supermodel said on the Friday, Jan. 31 episode of ‘Today’.
Paulina Porizkova continues to candidly discuss aging. The Swedish supermodel, 59, appeared on the Friday, Jan. 31 episode of the Today show and opened up about her perception of aging.
She told anchor Savannah Guthrie that she can’t wait for her 60th birthday on April 9, saying, “I have never been more thrilled about a birthday in my life.”
She explained, “I’ve paid my dues. I’ve raised my children, I’ve had a family, I’ve been the wife, I’ve done everything society expected of me and you know what? It’s my turn.”
Guthrie, 53, followed up by saying that Porizkova has a new outlook on aging compared to years past.
“I feel like we’re so scared of wrinkles,” Porizkova replied. “Have you noticed that? We’re so terrified of wrinkles because I suppose wrinkles make us no longer relevant,
no longer se xy, no longer desirable, and as women, that has been sort of our calling card – it’s tagged with us for such a long time.”
