    i thought that was an appendicitis scar! mmm…tummy tuck may indeed be more likely…
    thanks for the link to the essential baby post, Eve. How come you didn’t put it up, Mia?

    Mia! Honey! AND girls, girls, girls! She has had a tummy tuck!!!
    Can you see the scar on the side of her bikini? Kudos to her though, Even if I had a tummy tuck I would still not look one hundredth as marvellous as she does.

    I bow to the beauty, grace, talent, intelligence and wit of Helen Mirren. She’s like the perfect woman and I totally envy that figure even though I’m 27 years younger than her!

    She looks fantastic!!
    As for her name Emma, I don’t know why you’d trade Lydia for Helen. Although Helen suits her to a T

    And, who described her bikini as “skimpy”?
    Was it Bishop Anthony Fisher?
    Or, was a cranky someone who hasn’t got out much since the late 1950s?

    Yes, she looks just great.
    She first came to my notice as a young girl in a movie filmed mainly in Queensland called “Age of Consent”.
    Now that we have both “matured”, to me, she remains such a sexy devil…
    And of course, I would still respect her in the morning – as a wonderful actor on stage, screen and television.

    Helen Mirren is always one of the most stunning women on the red carpet at the Oscars – she looks awesome. New word to describe the sexy sixty-somethings: ‘Mirren-esque’.

    She has no kids and she says she has “no maternal instinct whatsoever.” (http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/article/mirren%20i%20have%20no%20maternal%20instinct_1023284)
    Her birth name was Illiana Lydia Petrovna Mironova, I thought I’d share that. I like finding out what celebs were called before they were famous.
    One article I read described this as a skimpy bikini. I don’t think I’d describe it as skimpy though! It’s not like it’s a triangle string bikini. I think it’s age appropriate too :-)
    I’m 23 and she has a better body than me, 40 years older than me and looking hotter! Go Helen!

    No way! Is that for real? Has she had anything done? Look at that stomach! Has she had children? She looks awsome!
    I swear I am off junk food (after tonight). I have 31 years to get working on looking like that, and it ‘aint getting any easier!

    I’d be happy having a body that looked like that now!! Let alone at the age of 63. Just fantastic. Good on her.
